Fabulous Blueberry Delight

I first discovered this dessert when a friend who is a professional chef would cook this for our family. That was in the days of hubby practicing medicine full time.

While I never had the nerve to ask him for the recipe, Faith and I spliced and tweaked several recipes to come up with our own concoction. We love the results and it’s always a crowd pleaser when friends come over.

As a side note, I even helped make this dessert on a missions trip last summer for 150 people! Trust me when I say, “That’s a lot of blueberries!” :)
