Glazed Strawberry Yogurt Squares

I made this recipe yesterday so I could get rid of a bunch of leftover strawberry yogurt. I was kind of worried about how it would taste, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was really good and my husband enjoyed it as well. I left out the fruit roll-up, because I didn't have any, but it tasted great without it. (The fruit roll-up isn't listed in the ingredients, but it's listed in the directions for some reason.)
