1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup strawberry puree (about 4 fresh very large strawberries pureed in a blender)

1 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon water

I made this dessert for our church's youth group and it was literally gone within a matter of 5 or 10 minutes. It was delicious--only i would reccomend a little more filling.
