There will be individual project pictures and links to what everyone else has to offer at the end of my post. There’s also the opportunity for you to link up any of your Spring themed posts.
Here’s a peek at what we all came up with:
This month our theme is Spring. And let me tell you, it can’t come fast enough for me. My contribution is the recipe for my White Brownie Parfait. I chose this recipe because I use white cocoa, a sort of nod to winter but I also use fresh berries. Nothing says spring is here and summer’s coming like fresh fruits. I chose strawberries and blueberries because that’s what looked best to me, but you can really use whatever berries you find. This recipe is versatile. The white brownie adds sweetness but the flavor won’t overpower any fruit you choose.
White brownie Parfait
The first step is to make the white brownies. They’re easy to make, microwave, mix and bake. They’re ready when they start to brown.

Of course you know that my boys ate some of the white brownies before I even made the parfaits.
