These look incredible! They look so easy to make. A great dessert treat for the 4th of July.
That is a perfect summer dessert. I think these will be a huge hit with my kids!
It is so nice you make these great cool treats for the kids. I will try and make this for warm summer evenings when we long for something cold and sweet.
Now, this is something I have not seen. What a grand idea. My kids would love that and my son would love to help me make them. WINNER!
I love these! They sound tasty, and they look super cute. I have to make these for the kiddos. And for me…. LOL
I would probably eat more of the ingredients as I go along so there would be little left for the dessert cups! LOL
NOM NOM NOM to this! 🙂
My grandchildren will be staying over this weekend. I will make these for them. Oh I am looking forward to the fun we’ll have! Thanks for the recipe idea!
We always have this 2-week period of cloudy days in June. We call it the June Gloom. As soon as it burns off, it’ll be hot through October. We are going to be eating a lot of these all summer long!
Now this is a new way to have neapolitan ice cream. So innovative and perfect treats for the summer!
I can’t wait to give these a try when we get back stateside. Neapolitan ice cream has been my favorite since childhood. Something about mixing those 3 awesome flavors together just makes me happy.
Such a pretty looking dessert! I am sure I would be getting praises when I serve this dessert cups to my guests. Of course, I will tell them I got the recipe from you. Thanks for sharing!
