One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

I had some berries they weren’t being eaten so I made this delicious berry cake. I had fresh berries but you could also use frozen. This cake is so easy to make, and you only need one bowl.

Swimming Peeps Jello Cups

I made these really cute Jello cups for the kids this year for Easter. They were a huge hit! All of their mouths were blue after, but they loved them.

 The Peeps came in a pack of 10, so I made 10 Jello cups. It took 2 packets of Jello. I used plastic cups, but you could use glass if you're sure they won't end up falling on the floor. One of mine did so I'd still recommend plastic.


Swimming Peeps Jello Cups
From The First Year
Makes 10 Servings

 Ingredients
  • 2 packets of blue Jello
  • 1/2 a tub of frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • blue liquid food colouring
  • 10 Peeps
Directions
  1. Prepare the Jello according to package directions and divide among 10 plastic cups.
  2. Refrigerate for several hours until set.
  3. Mix the whipped topping with a few drops of blue food colouring. I think I used about 10 drops. I used a plastic zipper bag with the tip cut off to pipe the topping into the cups.
  4. Place one Peep on top of each and press down slightly. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
