Patriotic Cake Batter Cookies

My husbands birthday is on July 4th, so the festivities always include red, white and blue (except when he turned 50)!  Ironically, he’s Canadian, so it’s a running joke that his birthday is on a highly celebrated American holiday. 

Even though he became a citizen several years ago, we still enjoy a chuckle every now and again about that.  And I have to admit that I’m glad red, white and blue get a little more attention around patriotic holidays. 

Red, White and Blue Cookies

Anywho, if you’re hosting a July 4th barbecue or taking a dish to share — why not make whip up a batch of these cake batter cookies?  They’re semi-homemade since you’ll be using a white cake mix. Add just a few other ingredients to the mix and dessert is served!

I would imagine that if the kids or grandkids are around, they’d love to help you pull these together.  They’re hard to mess up!  Enjoy!
