An elegant dessert with a layer of blackberries nestled under a warm custard blanket
Cooking Technique:Boil-Simmer
Prep Time:20
Cooking Time:20-30 minutes
Yield:8 servings (3/4 cup each)
Ingredients
1 pound fresh or thawed frozen blackberries, divided
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1-3/4 cups non-alcoholic sparkling white wine, divided
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup (8 ounces) Egg Beaters® Egg Product
Reddi-wip® Fat Free Dairy Whipped Topping, (optional)
fresh mint leaves, (optional)
Directions
1. Divide 1-1/4 cups blackberries evenly among 8 (10-ounce) wine glasses. Press remaining blackberries through sieve. Discard seeds; set juice aside.
2. Mix cornstarch and 1/4 cup wine in small bowl; set aside. Pour remaining 1-1/2 cups wine into medium saucepan; bring to boil over medium-high heat. Stir in maple syrup, vanilla, almond extract and the cornstarch mixture. Return to boil. Cook 30 seconds, or until thickened, stirring constantly. Cool slightly; set aside.
3. Heat about 1 inch of water in medium saucepan over medium heat just until steaming. (Do not bring to boil.) Set a medium metal bowl on top to create a double boiler. Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour sugar and Egg Beaters into bowl; beat constantly with wire whisk 3 minutes, or until mixture is thickened and more than tripled in volume.
4. Add gradually to Egg Beaters mixture, stirring constantly with wire whisk until well blended. Remove from heat. Add about 3/4 of the blackberry juice; stir until well blended. Spoon over blackberries in glasses. Drizzle with the remaining juice.
5. Serve warm topped with the whipped topping and mint leaf, if desired.
