Fluffy, custardy, creamy Dream! Wow! DH and I gobbled it up with apple slices. When the bowl was empty, we looked at each other in disbelief (insert cricket noises). Definitely a keeper, make often recipe!

This is sooo good!! I made as directed and was a little skeptical about adding an egg to a fruit dip, but it turned out excellent! Served with strawberries and cantalope (strawberries were best); will be making this throughout the summer! Made for 123Hits game win.

Oh my gosh, this is so good! This made for a good dip for the pineapple chunks, apples, oranges and mago chunks! This also goes well with graham crackers! I brought it over to my friend's house for a little get together with our friends and she wanted to keep the rest of it!
