NOTE #1: I confess I have not used Quark as an ingredient & do not know if I can get it here in Iceland. However, Roz said \"Quark makes a quick light dip & has fewer calories than richer cream cheese.\" Taking this cue from her, my assumption is cream cheese may be used as an alternative to quark.
NOTE #2: As written the recipe offered a choice of using single cream OR low-fat yogurt. I opted for the latter, but the former may be your choice. Feel free. :-).
