Equipment

  • Small Saucepan
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Cake dessert shells
Cream Cheese Layer
  • 3 tbsp Light cream cheese
  • 2 tsp Powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Vanilla extract
Berry Compote
  • 1 cup Berries cut into uniform size
  • 2 tsp Sugar or artificial sweetener
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice fresh squeezed

Instructions
 

  • Cut and wash berries. In a small saucepan, combine berries, sugar, and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer for 5-7 minutes, until berries have released liquid but still have some shape. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
  • Combine cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar and mix until fully combined.
  • Add 1 tsp of cream cheese mixture into the bottom of each dessert shell and spread to coat it. Top with berry compote to fill each shell, and finish with a dollop of whipped cream!
  • Store components separately in the fridge and assemble before enjoying.
