July Fourth Flag Cake




For the past three years Luke and I have made this simple cake on each July 4th. This year Luke did most of the work and Emma helped out. It is such a fun thing for us to do together on this holiday.

What you need:
-Yellow Cake Mix
-Large tub of Cool Whip
-Fresh Strawberries (cut in half)
-Fresh blueberries

Directions:
Bake the cake according to directions on the box, then let cool completely. We usually let it cool overnight. Then, spread to cool whip all over the cake. Next use the blueberries as stars on the flag and the strawberries as the stripes.

This is such a fun and easy thing to do with kids. They love it. Luke put most of the cool whip on our cake this year as well as the strawberry stripes. Emma helped with the blueberry stars! It tasted great as well!
