Red Velvet, Whip, and Blueberry Trifle

For the 4th, I made a festive trifle complete with the color scheme of the day.

1 box Red Velvet Cake, prepared as directed and cooled.
eggs, oil (per cake directions)
2 boxes jello instant pudding, I used cheesecake
4 C milk
2 cans Coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
4 tsp sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 C blueberries, rinsed

Prepare cake and bake. Allow to cool. In the meantime prepare pudding and refrigerate. For Coconut whip cream, Chill metal bowl and mixers in freezer for 5 minutes. Flip cans upside down and open, drain out liquid (save for another use) and put cream in bowl to mix. Mix cream and beat in sugar and vanilla. Set aside. Crumble half of cake into large trifle or punch bowl. Layer with half of pudding mixture, half of coconut whip and half of blueberries. Repeat layer and chill.

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.

Whip it Whip it good

Coconut whipped cream It's so good, it only requires 3 ingredients, it's vegan and has none of that artificial garbage. Yes, the can is upside down and yes it is necessary. It probably wasn't necessary to take a picture of it upside down, but it's funny so there! 1 can of full fat coconut milk, chill in fridge overnight 2 tsp sugar  1/2 tsp vanilla Put your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 5 minutes. Open coconut milk upside down, pour out the liquid and save for another use. Scoop out the cream and add to chilled bowl. Whip with electric mixers or a Kitchenaid mixer with paddle attachment. Add sugar and vanilla. Continue to whip until light and fluffy. Use this like cool whip, I even used it to make a layered oreo dessert it was delish!
