Oh wow, I just tried this new dessert and everyone who had it LOVED it!! Julie Johnson shared this one with me as well as the rhubarb out of her garden to try (thanks so much Julie!) Tonight I'm going to make it for Sunday dinner, but since i don't have any more rhubarb, I'm just going to use raspberries, strawberries and blackberries! Please try this, you'll love it.
