Creamy Fruit Freeze


I recently bought 10 pounds of fresh blackberries...yes, 10 pounds - luckily they were frozen so I didn't have to use them immediately.  We have made more blackberry cobbler than you can imagine, so we've been looking for other recipes to utilize these tasty little treats...and then I ran across this quick and super easy dessert at ourbestbites.com.  H-E-A-V-E-N...and you don't need an ice cream maker!!
Ingredients:
4 C berries or roughly diced fruit
1 C sugar
1 C heavy whipping cream
Directions:
Combine fruit and sugar in a food processor and process until smooth.
Reserve 1 cup of the puree (store in fridge until ready to use).
In a mixing bowl, whip heavy whipping cream until soft-medium peaks form. Gently fold into the remaining puree just until combined.
Place in a freezer safe container and freeze until firm (about 2-4 hours).
Scoop into bowls and serve with remaining puree and extra berries if desired. Serves 6 small servings.
