Remove from heat and stir in butter. Chill. Then whip heavy cream and gently fold  whipped cream, fruits and marshmallows to thickened lemon mixture. Looks beautiful served in a crystal bowl or other favorite bowl. Can make night before and chill overnight. Serves 10 to 12.   Both of our sons and our daughter have also taken turns making this dish, as we can't seem to have a Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner without this special fruit salad.   Candlelite Inn Baked Blueberry French Toast 4 eggs 1/2 cup half and half 1 tsp. Watkins Vanilla or 1 1/2 to 2 tsp. other vanilla 8 to 10 pieces of 1" sliced French bread Blueberries 1/2 cup sugar 2 T. butter or margarine 1 t. cinnamon Beat eggs, half and half and vanilla in large bowl. Add bread slices to dip, turning once to coat each side, and place dipped bread in a 9 X 13 baking dish. Cover baking dish and chill overnight. In morning, place blueberries (at least a pint - fresher the better) in bottom of the baking dish. Replace soaked bread on top of berries. Mix suger, butter and cinnamon together until crumbly (I like to also mix this the night before and then refrigerate in a small covered bowl).  Sprinkle the sugar mixure on top of soaked bread. Bake uncovered at 350 until bubbly and golden (I start checking at 30 minutes, and remove when topping is bubbling nicely). Candlelite Inn Soft Lemon  Cookies 1 box lemon cake mix (we like Duncan Hines)    1 small Cool Whip, softened 2 eggs                                                                             confectioners sugar for dipping Mix cake mix, eggs and soft Cool Whip together.  Using an ice cream scoop, drop small balls into sugar so they are lightly covered.  Drop on greased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees.  Easy, soft and flavorful.  It was also the favorite cookie at our recent holiday tea and tour. Candlelite Inn Deviled Ham & Cheese Ball 1 can Underwood Deviled Ham                  1/2 T. lemon juice 1 pkg cream cheese softened - 8 oz        8 oz sharp cheddar, shredded finely 1 T. finely minced onion                               1/2 T. parsley if desired (Garnish ideas - almonds, pecans, radish slices, pimento, or leave plain) In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except nuts. Chill until starts to firm up.  Form into desired shape (we have done balls, footballs and bells) and roll in nuts or other garnish depending on preferences. Great plain too.  Chill several more hours or overnight.  Serve with assorted crackers.  This was on the buffet on Thanksgiving day and it just disappeared.
