I'm a "non-baker" And this was soooo easy! This is a great "kid friendly" dessert. Decreased sugar by half. Added sliced bananas on top. Didn't have lemon juice so I used a little sprite soda to soak them in. Sliced a large strawberry almost up to the stem, fanned it out and put it in the center. Served each piece with/without topping as desired. Delicious!

We made the same recipe only we turned it into a chocolate version. We put in almost a whole bar of semi-sweet chocolate (melted) in the cream cheese mixture. And we also whipped our own cream. We also put some sliced strawberries and bananas in the center and ontop. IT WAS GREAT!!!!
