Blending vanilla yogurt and reduced-fat cream cheese creates a topping that's as virtuous as it is delicious. Any fresh berry can be used in this recipe.

I, too, used lemon yogurt....this was good and light. I mixed strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries....delicious! I didn't have any blending problems-I let the cream cheese soften a bit before blending it. I served it over shortcake for my father-in-law. feliciarock	9 weeks 5 days ago
This was excellent. I've made it several times and tried using orange peel the last time. It's even better than with the lemon peel. This is a great, light dessert on those hot summer nights. chef liz, San Antonio, TX	11 weeks 5 days ago
This was ok. The lowfat cream cheese gave it a different flavor, but we did enjoy the lemony flavor. I would prefer to just add the blueberries to lowfat vanilla yogurt. Amy	11 weeks 5 days ago
This is sooooooo good and sooooooo easy. I took the suggestion and used lemon yogurt. A wonderful low-cal way to enjoy to enjoy fresh summer blueberries. Ellen, Oak Park, IL	11 weeks 5 days ago
I tried this as a replacement for a mascarpone and cream topping for blueberries. The flavor was okay, but the texture was inelegant. There were specks of cream cheese that did not blend with the yogurt. (You can see this in the photo.) Susan RI, Providence, ri	11 weeks 5 days ago
This was SOOO good and so easy. I used plain yogurt, so I sweetened it with a little maple syrup and some vanilla before using it in the recipe. I served the cream with a mixture of fresh blueberries, strawberries and peaches. It was a big hit! Penelope, Burlington, VT	11 weeks 5 days ago
I used lemon yogurt. Tastes like blueberry cheesecake. Anonymous, Fond du Lac, WI	11 weeks 5 days ago
