I love eating plain yogurt with a generous dollop of creme de maroons.

Not recipes but usage ideas:
Mont Blanc - riced, topped with whipped cream (formed to look like a mountain)
Serve with nuts, berries, liqueur and/or ice cream as a dessert
Mix with chocolate and spreading toast
Serve in the last few months of spring with vegetables like red cabbage or sweet potato (as a side or a soup)
Use as a filling between layers of cake or meringues
