This is a tasty and healthy dessert. I used plain non-fat yogurt so added some vanilla extract. I probably used a bit more lemon zest than called for. I sprinkled each serving with a dash of ground cinnamon. Thanks for posting!

This was fabulous! The lemon zest gave just the right amount of flavor. I'll be making this often.

We are working hard with our 9 year old, trying to teach better eating habits. So I'm trying to find healthier fruit based treats that I think he'll like. This one was great! I used fat free vanilla yogurt which worked well. We loved it with the blueberries but the 9 year old asked if I'd just make him the yogurt sometime for a treat. Thanks for a really good one!

I love the flavor combination here!!! The fresh blueberries combined with the cream and fresh lemon zest are wonderful!! I used a raw, thick honey. I think it has the best flavor and it thickens the mix even better!! This is a nice thing to serve guests, I thought it was lovely!! Thanks for posting, will definitely make again!!!
