Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by washing and drying the fresh strawberries and blueberries thoroughly to ensure they're clean and ready to eat. Slice the tops off the strawberries to create a flat surface.
  2. Grab your mini clear cups and add a layer of cream cheese at the bottom of each one. Use about a tablespoon of cream cheese per cup.
  3. Layer the strawberries upright in the cups, then follow with a layer of blueberries to complete the red, white, and blue look.
  4. Place a fresh mint leaf on top of each cup for added color and freshness. Arrange the cups neatly on a platter.
  5. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set the cream cheese and keep the fruits firm.
  6. Once chilled, serve the Uncle Sam Hat Snack Cups and enjoy the colorful combination of fresh fruits and creamy cheese.
