How to Make Blackberry Cream Cheese Dessert
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour until a crumbly dough forms.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces of cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1/4 cup milk until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate saucepan, combine 3 cups fresh blackberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Pour the cooled blackberry topping over the cream cheese layer. Top with 1 cup of whipped topping (store-bought or homemade). Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to chill thoroughly.
