Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon cold water
  • CRUST:
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (about 16 squares)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten

Directions

  • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar and lemon juice. Cook and stir over medium heat for 5 minutes or until the berries are softened. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into the blueberry mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature. Transfer to a blender; cover and process until smooth. Set aside.

I made this for my friends at work and for my family and everyone that tasted it said that it is really creamy, Delicious and looks very pretty. I have made this with different flavors and it still turns out the same every time. I used frozen blueberries. topped it with whole blueberries and the syrup or sauce. I will definitely put this recipe in my cook book.
