Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g Fresh mixed berries (e.g., raspberries, strawberries, and blueberries)
- 240 ml Heavy cream
- 30 g Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 120 g Cream cheese (softened)
- 150 g Ginger snap cookies (crushed)
- 50 g Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tsp Lemon zest (optional)
- 10 leaves Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed ginger snap cookies with the melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Divide the cookie mixture evenly among 6 serving glasses or dessert cups, pressing down lightly to form a base layer. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese until well combined, creating a light and fluffy cream mixture.
In a separate small bowl, toss the fresh berries with the lemon zest for added brightness (optional).
Layer the dessert cups by adding a generous scoop of the cream mixture over the cookie base, followed by a layer of mixed berries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with a cream layer on top.
Garnish each dessert with a few fresh berries, a mint leaf, and a sprinkling of crushed ginger snap cookies (if desired).
Chill the desserts in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold and enjoy this refreshing Barkram Swedish Berry Cream Dessert!
