Blueberry Pie Or Cake - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/3 cups crushed graham crackers
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons white sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup white granular sugar
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup warm water
2 1/2 cups mascarpone cheese, softened at room temperature
1 1/2 cups whipped cream
Preparation
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a small bowl mix the crushed graham crackers with the cinnamon, 2 teaspoon of sugar and melted butter. Spread it over the bottom of a 9\" springform pan, deep dish pie pan or quiche dish. Bake for 6 minutes then set aside to cool.
In a small saucepan combine the blueberries with 1/2cup water and 1/2 cup of sugar. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then let it simmer over low heat until it bexcomes a coulis. Stir often to avoid the sauce sticking to the bottom of the sauce pan. Let cool.
In the meantime (while the blueberry coulis is cooling), mix the gelatin with warm water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes.
In a large bowl mix the marscapone cheese with the blueberry coulis. Once properly mixed, add the gelatin mixture and and mix again. Very quickly add the whipped cream half a cup at a time, mixing thoroughly each time.
Pour over the baked graham crust and refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Serve either cold or at room temperature.
