Delicious! I used the apple filling, and we really enjoyed it. I think I might also try it with strawberries next time. Thanks for sharing!

These are so absolutely fantastic Dreamer. I used apples also, but next time am going the banana route. I think a bit of p.b. could be involved for more fanatastic results. Came home from driving school bus and needed a quick snacky. Hit the spot. Loved the tart-ness of the apple and the sweetness of the creamcheese/brownsugar/vanilla combo. 5+ stars.....love quesa's anyway I can get-em..
