One of our favorite summer holidays is upon us, which means one long weekend filled with parades, fireworks and celebratory cookouts. That being said, everyone loves a table full of patriotic desserts. If you’re stumped on what to bring to your Fourth of July barbecue this weekend, or just looking for a fun treat, “donut” worry! We’ve got just the thing with a Red, White, & Blue Donut Sandwich. This festive recipe layers our Strawberry Coolatta® sauce, blueberries and whipped cream between a sliced Powdered Donut.
Regardless of how or where you’re spending the Fourth, this tasty recipe makes for a simple yet delicious Independence Day dessert for friends and family! Try out the recipe below and share your thoughts (and pics) with us on Twitter and Instagram!
Ingredients:
- 1 Dunkin’ Donuts Powdered Donut
- Your favorite whipped cream
- ½ Cup of blueberries
- 2 Large Dunkin’ Donuts Strawberry Coolatta frozen drinks
Instructions:
Strawberry Coolatta Sauce

Red, White, & Blue Donut Sandwich
- Freeze donut. This makes it easier to slice.
- Slice donut and add whipped cream to the bottom slice.

- Drizzle the Strawberry Coolatta Sauce over the whipped cream and blueberries.
- Place the second donut slice on top and enjoy!
