Little Miss Gab’s and I have had so much fun this week baking and sharing our Kraft Foods spring dessert recipes with y’all…
Did you see our Classic Angel Flake Cake and Banana Foster Pudding Squares? Oh my. They’re SO simple to make and SO tasty too- which is the best combination ever, right?! Agreed.
Our last Kraft Foods spring dessert recipe is a little something we came up with all on our own… it’s a Miss Gab’s and Ruthie original and we’re totally loving them!
These Strawberry Shortcake Cookies are just about the best things in the whole wide world! Really.
We couldn’t stop sampling the yummy filling! It’s fabulously good. Mmmm hmm 🙂
You won’t be able to keep out of it either… PROMISE.
