I’m making these tomorrow. They look fabulous.
Oh my goodness these were an absolute hit! Mom suggested however that we make the next one with the juice and zest of an orange and add cocoa powder (one of her favorite flavor combos). I’ll let you know the measurements we use and how it turns out. Thanks for sharing this one!!
I made these for my Girl Scout Leader Dessert Party. They were a hit! I got lots of recipe requests. Now I’m making it for Father’s day, you can’t go wrong bringing this Dessert to any party.
My husband asks for these every Father’s day and on his birthday. I do sprinkle blueberries on top of the cream cheese, he loves the taste of blueberries and lemon.
