Blueberry Cream is in between a pudding and a sauce. There are several ways to enjoy this dessert. Serve in bowls or use it as a topping for fruit or cake.

Blueberry Cream

I love entering contests.  It’s not that I always expect to win but I love creating a recipe that has the potential to win.  As you know from my recent Food Wine Conference #FWCon post, there are several fabulous contests this year and Blueberry Cream is perfectly suited for one of them.

The 2016 Florida Dairy Farmers have the #makeitwithmilk contest that requires at least 1 cup of real milk and 1 cup of another dairy product.  EASY PEASY for Desserts Required because I always use real milk and I love all dairy products!

Blueberry Cream is in between a pudding and a sauce. There are several ways to enjoy this dessert. Serve in bowls or use it as a topping for fruit or cake.

The first thing I did was puree and strain one 6 ounce container of fresh blueberries through a fine mesh strainer.  The ingredients are then cooked on the stove similarly to how one cooks pudding.  Once the desired consistency is reached, the Blueberry Cream is transferred to a bowl and covered with wax paper.  After it is very cold, an additional 6 ounces of blueberries are gently folded into the dessert.  All that is left to do is transfer to a serving bowl and top with more blueberries.  See what I mean about how much I love using milk and dairy?

The consistency is between a pudding and a sauce and there are several ways to enjoy Blueberry Cream.  I served mine in bowls and all of my guests raved about it.  Other options are spooning Blueberry Cream over fresh fruit parfait, Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake, Orange Coconut Bundt Cake or Angel Food Cake.

Happylicious By Betsy December 2015 lo res I have loved desserts for as long as I can remember. Growing up I loved the smell of freshly baked challah in my maternal great-grandmother’s kitchen, the incredible butter cookies from my paternal grandmother and the perfect pies my mother used to bake when company came over.
