Frosty Blueberry Custard

A delicious and refreshing, lemon-kissed blueberry custard mold.

Recipe Ingredients:

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
4 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1 (8-ounce) carton lemon yogurt for garnish (optional)

Cooking Directions:

1. Set aside 8 to 10 blueberries for garnish, if desired. Place remaining blueberries in blender container. Set aside.
2. In medium saucepan, beat together eggs, buttermilk, sugar, and juice until blended. Sprinkle with gelatin. Let stand 1 minute. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture just coats a metal spoon with a thin film and reaches 160°F (70°C). Pour over berries in blender container. Cover. Blend at high speed until well blended, about 30 seconds.
3. Pour into 5 cup mold. Chill until set, several hours or overnight.
4. To serve, unmold on platter. Garnish with yogurt and reserved berries, if desired.

Makes 6 servings.
