As we continue to endure the never-ending winter, I felt it was time for a little comfort. Growing up that always involved food and usually desserts. Please do not turn me in to the sugar police, I do not recommend eating this sort of thing every day. This is perfect for a brunch or large family gathering.
This recipe is a combination of two recipes I found in a Taste of Home cookbook. I found myself with a bunch of homemade lemon curd and some fresh blueberries that I wanted to use up, so I created this recipe. My husband can attest that sometimes the recipes don't work, but this one was utterly delicious!
So good, in fact, that it was pretty much gone by the time it dawned on me to take a picture of it.
