- Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until slightly thickened (about 10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and beat (with electric mixer) in cream cheese until smooth.
- Beat egg whites on medium speed of mixer until soft peaks form.
- Slowly add remaining 1/2 cup (125 ml) sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
- Separately, whip cream until soft peaks form and then fold egg whites and whipped cream into gelatin mixture.

- When fresh blueberries are out of season, sliced kiwi fruit is a nice alternative.
- Comments
- This is one of the best desserts I do - and this is the time of year blueberries are inexpensive! I won first prize in the Long Reach Country Fair (Columbia, MD) in the baking contest with this recipe and also the Grand Prize, too. Believe me, your guests and family will love this one!
