Blueberry and cheese cream dessert (Gateau au fromage glace aux bleuets)





I love blueberries and all  berries.  Today a really french recipe.
For this dessert also use frozen blueberries because although it has been found fresh you must freeze them if you don't use right now.
(same as raspberries)

  The summer heat has dropped a little but we still continue with those terrible fires especially in forests. I hope they are finished.
And I know that for many of you Spring is already close. Spring is a beautiful season.
I wait for my autumn :)
A hug for all !

Graham crust

Meanwhile in a bowl combine graham crust, sugar and butter until well moistened. Squeeze the mixture into a 23 cm (9") square baking pan lined with parchment paper. Freeze for about 30 minutes or until crust is firm.

In a bowl, using an electric mixer beat the cheese and condensed milk until the mixture is smooth. Add sour cream, greek yogurt   and vanilla and mix well. 
Pour the cheese filling over the reserved crust and spread evenly.

 Drop the blueberry puree in large spoonfuls over the cheese filling over the reserved crust and spread evenly.
 With the tip of a knife, but without touching the crust, draw volutes in the filling to create a marbled effect.
