Save it, plan it, shop for it.
Supper turns recipes like this into a planned week and a sorted grocery list — then walks you through cooking, hands-free. Coming soon to iOS.
Ingredients
Serves 6- 1 tbsp cornflour ((cornstarch) mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water)
- 175 g (1 cup) fresh blueberries
- 225 g (1 ½ cups) fresh blackberries
- juice of half a lemon
- zest of one lemon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 180 ml (¾ cup) double (heavy) cream
- 2 tbsp cold water
- 2 x 225g (2 x 8 oz) packs Philidelphia cream cheese
- 100 g (1/2 cup) caster (or fine granulated) sugar
- 3 tbsp light brown sugar
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)

Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.
Steps
- Step 1
Place the biscuits/graham crackers into a large bag or bowl and crush them into crumbs using the end of a rolling pin. Add the melted butter, brown sugar, and salt and mix until the crumbs absorb the butter.
- Step 2
Place the blueberries, blackberries, lemon juice, water and sugar in a pan and heat gently until the berries start to break down (about 5 minutes).
- Step 3
Stir in the cornflour mixture and heat through, continuously stirring for another 30 seconds until the berry mixture has thickened. Turn off the heat and allow to cool.
- Step 4
Pour the cream into a large bowl and whisk with an electric whisk until thick.
- Step 5
Add the cream cheese, vanilla and confectioners’s sugar and whisk again until combined. The mixture should be thick enough to hold its shape.
- Step 6
Divide the cookie crumbs between 6 mason jars (mine are 200ml/7oz jars) and press down with the back of a spoon.
- Step 7
Spoon or pipe the cream cheese mixture on top, then spoon over the cooled berry mixture.
- Step 8
Sprinkle with lemon zest and serve – or place a lid on and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Interactive, hands-free timers are available in the Supper app.
