Sunday, Andrew and I got together with some friends for a lunch potluck. We had burgers, potato chips, potato salad, and some watermelon. We brought the dessert. I was going to use my go-to and make schoteroos, but then I saw this dessert on my mom's blog and knew that I had to try it. But, I changed it just a little.

2 cans fruit pie filling; cherry, strawberry, blueberry... your choice

I love blueberries, so I used blueberry pie filling. The cookie need to be crispy so that they break well. I could not find a sugar cookie that would work, so I used Biscoff cookies. (If you haven't tried them, you need to. But beware, they are addictive!) It was the perfect combination. Everyone loved it. Definitely something I will make again!
Hi Heather, Sounds like a fun time with your friends. We love blueberry too. This sounds like a great recipe. Blog friend Arlene at Nanaland loves the Biscoff cookies, too!
ReplyDeleteMildred, I think she posted about them once, which is where I first heard of them. I had to try them!
ReplyDeleteBlog friends are great for sharing "good" things. You blogged about the "furminator" brush for cats and I went out and bought one! My cats love it! Thx.
DeleteIt turned out so pretty! Glad everyone liked it. I'll have to try the Biscoff cookies. :)
ReplyDeleteYummy food! Sounds like a lot of the food we've been enjoying this past holiday week as well
ReplyDeleteI was like, oh well, maybe I'll try this, maybe I won't ... mine won't look as good as Mari's and Heather's ... I don't even have a bowl like that ... and then you said "Biscoff." Now I think I'll just go get me some Biscoff. That is the most unbelievable cookie in all the world. Excellent!!! Trifle? Not sure. Biscoff? Oh yessssss. xoxo
