Ingredients
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
8 ounces cream cheese
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
24 ladyfingers or graham crackers
Instructions
1. In a saucepan, cook blueberries, sugar, and a splash of water over medium heat until berries burst. Stir in cornstarch and cook until thick. Cool completely.
2. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
3. In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and zest. Gently fold in half of the whipped cream.
4. In a lined loaf pan or square dish, layer ladyfingers or graham crackers, lemon cream, and blueberry compote. Repeat layers.
5. Top with remaining whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
6. Slice and serve chilled. Add extra blueberry compote if desired.
Notes
Use fresh lemon zest for best flavor.
Let the blueberry compote cool fully before layering.
Overnight chilling gives the best structure and taste.
