Peach & Blueberry Cake Waffle Shortcakes
Peach and Blueberry Cake Waffle Shortcakes are a fun twist on a classic summer dessert.
I did a little experimenting with my beloved KitchenAid Waffle Baker. I made Cake Waffles! Then I layered these little cake goodies with fresh whipped cream, fresh peaches and fresh blueberries, it was faaaantastic!
The cake mix made 5 Belgium Waffles making this a super quick and easy dessert for a crowd. You could even make a dessert waffle bar with tons of different topping options. My kids loved them and I think it would be great dessert option for kid parties.
I really loved how simple this dessert was, I made it after dinner one evening. Of course you could use strawberries or any other fresh fruit that you have.
We are down to single digits counting the days until Cody goes off to college. My days have been filled with anxiety attacks,okay not really. Actually they have been filled with phone calls for registration and orders from Amazon to collect all of the things he needs. It is going to be such a huge adjustment for him to be gone. Of course the school is close enough for him to come home on the weekends if he wants to. Maybe with the promise of all you can eat peach desserts, I can lure him back home on occasion.
