Wow, this was incredible. I used low fat sour cream and even a little less sugar, and still delicious! I actually put is as the topping on German pancakes for breakfast and it was to die for! The German pancakes are very easy, in case you want to try it. In a blender, blend six eggs, 1 cup milk, and 1 cup flour. While doing so pre-heat oven to 425 and put a 9x13 pan in with a few tablespoons butter to melt the butter on the bottom of the pan. Pull out the pan when the butter's melted, pour in the blended mixture, and bake it for about 12 minutes until it poofs up and gets browned on the edges. YUMM!! Definitely making that again.

I'd love to try this with blackberries, but right now I have fresh blueberries....so that is what I used. This is incredible. I used Saigon cinnamon and really enjoyed the lime zest! This is a lovely dessert, but I also think it would be a great breakfast, with some added oatmeal! Thanks for sharing!

I am a middle aged foodie who has had the luxury of living all over the world except asia. Lived in or grew up in Nigeria, Kenya, Chicago, Russia,and haiti. born in New Zealand, brother born in Austria and many more.
I have chronic medication resistant depression after 10 years on anti depressants that worked well but would stop working after a year or two, so now do my best at home living on disabilty. Not a bad thing, many have far worse health issues but i have been able to concentrate on food/cooking.
My main passions are my cats. I live in the woods and somehow many starving strays or "dumps" have found the message babies who passed on left in the woods saying "suck lives at xxxx road. Most arrive sick and/or starving. Right now i have 2 that arrived with feline herpes and their attendant 2ndry bacterial infections but are doing beautifully. One old man who was going to be euthanized bc a lady who found him as a stray was moving and didnt want him...well he was a biter and rather grumpy who was in ICU for 3 days with a deadly gut infection which was fixed but he left with a diagnosis of diabetes. 3 months on insulin and finally diet controlled and he caught the herpes virus, respiratory symptom version and turned into a cuddler. Butterscotch must think "why didnt i figure out this cuddle stuff was great before i got sick!" Doing wonderfully even though he has bouts. he and the other kids are my babies. Sadly Butterscotch died of Lymphatic cancer in winter of 2008. A year before Big Boy arrived in my life, starving and weak. Full of affection he jumped into my arms and stayed, turns out he has FIV (cat hiv) so he needs to be watched closely. I love him dearly
