Strawberry.......Fool!

I still had/have berries to use up and didn't want to do the normal stuff with them. So I searched and found a recipe called Strawberry Fool. It sounded interesting, so I thought I'd try it. For some reason, I don't think it turned out the way it was supposed to.....as a thick, creamy dessert. So now what do I do with this bowl of pink strawberry stuff? This is where I love when a mistake turns out to be a jack-pot! I figured I could use it as a sauce.....and it works! I made a Zelma's Easy Pound Cake recipe.....this time I used the SF yellow cake mix with SF/FF cheesecake pudding mix and NO 'optionals', so the cake is 3 PointsPlus™.......and you don't use enough of the Fool to have a P+ value. 

STRAWBERRY.....FOOL!

I'll explain the PointsPlus™ in MY SPIN

3 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 TBSP Splenda granulated
2 cups plain fat-free yogurt
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup light brown sugar

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced berries with the Splenda. Cover and chill 2 hours.

In another medium bowl, combine the yogurt, vanilla and brown sugar. Cover and chill 2 hours.

Gently fold the berries into the yogurt mix.

MY SPIN: I 'think' if you used Greek yogurt this would come out more like a stand-alone dessert and 1 cup would be 3 PointsPlus™ and make 4 servings.. I used regular yogurt and used this as a 'sauce' since it was too 'watery' for a stand-alone dessert......and the amount used wasn't enough to have any PointsPlus™ value.

The Fool sauce with Zelma's Easy Pound Cake
made with SF yellow cake mix and SF/FF cheesecake flavored pudding mix.

Now for the 'legal mumbo-jumbo' to keep me out of court!!   *** The PointsPlus™ value for this recipe was calculated by me (Jan Gomes) and is not an endorsement or approval of this recipe by Weight Watchers International, Inc., the owner of the PointsPlus™ registered trademark. ***
