Here we are, the Fourth of July has arrived, and for those of us living in the good ol? US of A that means a day of grilling, chilling, and bloating up on plenty of food and drink. That also means you have probably been invited to a cookout with the suggestion that you bring your favorite patriotic dish to share. If you?re like me you?ve probably waited until the last minute, so I am going to help you out with a simple and quick dessert idea: patriotic ice cream sandwiches. See, it?s both patriotic and vaguely Android-related (Ice Cream Sandwich, duh) and it only requires three ingredients:
- Popsicle sticks or skewers
- Ice cream sandwiches
- Red, white, and blue sprinkles
You can probably see where this is going, but in case you need some help putting it together:
- Insert popsicle stick or skewer into ice cream sandwich lengthwise,
- hold ice cream sandwich by newly created handle and dip into dish of red, white, and blue sprinkles,
- make sure to coat every visible bit of ice cream around the edges of the sandwich with sprinkles,
- keep nice and cold until ready to serve.
Now that?s one delicious ice cream sandwich you won?t have to wait a 6-8 month development cycle to enjoy. Instant gratification!
For other holiday food and dessert ideas a few options exist in the Android Market. The aptly-named Fourth of July Recipes includes plenty of foods that will make you proud to be an American including All-American Baby Back Ribs, For-the-Glory Pie, and more. Most are variations on traditional BBQ fare, and all seem like a pretty safe bet this Independence Day. If you?d rather not spend $1.38 on a holiday-specific app, Epicurious is always a good choice for finding some great recipes. You?ll just need to get creative and add a splash of American Pride to the mix. Food coloring, anyone?
I can smell the grill firing up already and my mouth is watering. How about yours? Throw your own favorite July 4th and BBQ recipes in the comments below!
