Yumm Boomette! This is fantastic. I made it just as posted with the exception of using low fat granola instead of the cookies. I also used a non-fat vanilla yogurt. To further reduce calories, we used Splenda instead of sugar. It is a hit and the family is already asking for me to make more! Thanks for posting!!
