My thoughts: This recipe has been simmering in the back of my mind ever since I made my raspberry lemonade truffles for RWOP a few weeks ago. Adding Kool Aid to Cream Cheese…using fun cereal as a crust…finally I just did it. It won’t qualify for the contest as it really needs some time in the freezer to set properly– NOT within the one hour time limit! What a fun and refreshing dessert this turned out to be– I hope you try it and love it!! -r
