I was gonna use this for bars, but at the last minute got the idea of stirring some of it into frozen vanilla yogurt that had been softened, & that was really, really satisfying! Loved the flavor combo from the 3 fruits, & I'll definitely be making this one again! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag]
