Backyard BBQs, Birthdays & Baking

It’s officially the weekend, ya’ll! June is full of birthdays, anniversaries & Father’s Day celebrations for us — and all this celebrating means friends coming to visit and family get-togethers. We have a busy weekend ahead!

Last night we had some friends over for an impromptu BBQ and I wanted to share with you the delicious dessert we served. This would be a great recipe for your Father’s Day celebrations this weekend and it is so easy to make. This recipe comes from the kitchen of my sweet mom and it’s a pie I crave every summer when the weather gets warm. It was a big hit with our friends — when they ask for seconds you know its good!

Blueberry-Banana Cream Pie

1 graham cracker or regular pie crust (baked)

2 bananas

1 – 8oz. package of cream cheese

1 container of Cool Whip

1 cup sugar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 – 20oz. can of blueberry pie filling

  4. Pour mixture on top of banana slices.
