Looking for the perfect summer treat? Try a serving
of this cool, lemony dessert. And it's SO easy to make! My mom found
this online and I helped to make it more points-friendly. For a more
tart and tangy flavor you can double the frozen lemonaid concentrate
(Adds 1 point per serving). Enjoy!!
Ingredients:
20 Honey Graham Crackers (low-fat or regular) (5 whole sheets),
finely crushed (about 1 cup crumbs) *
1/4 cup reduced-fat margarine or butter, melted *
1 qt. (4 cups) frozen vanilla yogurt, softened
1 (6-oz) can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed *
* Using the recipe's original 36 graham
crackers (9 whole sheets, or "18 squares" as they put it")
+ 1/3 cup margerine (using reduced fat) will add 1 point per square.
* Also note that using regular graham
crackers instead of low-fat will not alter the points value enough
to matter.
* Using a 12-oz can of frozen lemonaid
concentrate (instead of 6-oz) will make the dessert a lot more tart
and tangy, and will add 1 point per square.
Optional Toppings (These do not alter points but really are not
neccessary either):
1/2 cup thawed fat-free whipped topping
Mint sprigs and lemon slices
Directions:
Mix crumbs and margarine. (A large ziplock bag works great for crushing
the crackers into crumbs!) Press firmly onto bottom of 8 or 9-inch
square pan.
Beat frozen yogurt and lemonade concentrate in large bowl with electric
mixer on medium speed until well blended. Spread over crust.
Freeze 4 hours or until firm. Cut into squares.
Optional: Serve each square topped with a dollop (1 Tb) of whipped
topping, mint sprigs and lemon slices, if desired. (These do not alter
points but really are not neccessary either)
Yields: 9 squares
Tip from Kraftfoods.com: Serve this refreshing dessert with some fresh
raspberries.
