***** WOW - this was good. I don't know if I'd serve it as a dessert - it was more a breakfast food - sorta like really fluffy scrambled eggs with apples in them - but so sweet - I think you could easily cut down on the sugar while making it - then just sprinkle some real sugar over top. I didn't use the powdered sugar - I did have some FF cool whip - excellent. Will definately be making this again - but probably for breakfast on a lazy day !!
