Pioneer Woman's Yogurt Cream and Berries: A Review

Sunday I made ice cream to take to work and the recipe I use always leaves us with left over cream that ends up getting thrown out. Well since I had the stuff on hand I made this yogurt cream on Sunday to go with the refrigerator full of fruit that I had just picked up at my local Sprouts.

I substituted non fat yogurt, because we always have some around and I only used 1/2 c of brown sugar because that is all we had left.

At first, it wasn't quite as magical as she describes in her blog at first, I think I would have liked it with more brown sugar. Somehow it just got to where I just can't get enough of it. I have finished off a carton of blueberries and most of a carton of strawberries in just a couple of days. To make matters even better I calculated the ww points a 1 pt per 1 tablespoon, so as long as a don't slather it all over (which I am tempted to do, but can resist) it is a good way to eat more fruit.

I would also recommend cutting the recipe in half if you are just making it for yourself or even if you plan on sharing with your sweetie. This makes a lot of sauce and we are trying to think of what else we can do with it. Any ideas??
