Equal® sweetener can be substituted with other sweetener products. Nutrition contents might be different from those listed below.
Directions:
- Beat cream cheese, sour cream, Equal® and lemon juice in medium bowl until smooth; gently mix in fruit.
- Spoon mixture into 12 paper-lined muffin cups, or spread in baking dish, 10x6 inches. Garnish with pecan halves and additional fruit, if desired. Freeze until firm, 6 to 8 hours. Let stand at room temperature until slightly softened, 10 to 15 minutes, before serving.
Tips:
- If made in a 10 x 6 inch baking dish; cut into squares and serve on lettuce-lined plates as a salad, or on plates with a pureed strawberry or raspberry sauce for dessert.
- The fruit mixture can be spooned into hollowed-out orange halves and frozen. Cut thin slice from bottom of orange halves so they will stand; place in muffin tins to freeze.
Yield: Makes 12 servings.
