Cool and Creamy Raspberry Delight image

I knew that this cool, fruit and creamy dessert was a winner the first time I tasted it. I confirmed that fact a few summers ago when I entered the recipe in a contest at work-it won first place. Co-workers still call to request it. -Mary Olson, Albany, Oregon
