Don't let the name fool you....this is a nice treat during the winter months!!!! I used this with frozen blueberries and it worked out really well. I thought it might need cornstarch to thicken it up a bit, but no, it was perfect as is. Just take the top off for 30 minutes at the end of cooking and the liquid will evaporate a bit. I had made this up the night before and warmed it up over the stove (just remember to take out the bits of lemon). For something so easy, it was wonderful over ice cream. I would do this one over and over again.
