About Recipe

Last Friday was Marquette's annual "Blueberry Festival", which is a fabulous opportunity for the family to have some fun, as well as purchase some fresh local blueberries! Blueberries most certainly never last long in my house! (My 5 year old Rodney should really be called the "Blueberry Monster"!) They are so good just enjoyed fresh as they are, but they are just so darn good baked or cooked in so many recipes! I've been wanting to make another pie recently, and wanted to come up with something super simple, but yet a bit unique at the same time. I've always been a sucker for puddings and cream pies, so this is the dreamy recipe I came up with! I wasn't even sure what to call it- as it's not a pudding, or a mousse, or a custard. But the texture is so smooth and creamy, and has the same consistency as a pudding. I happened to have some pre-made pie shells in my freezer, and I made a really easy and quick fresh blueberry topping. (But you could always purchase a can of pie filling if you wish!) The incredibly "dreamy" base couldn't be easier to make! It's simply melted white chocolate, lemon zest & extract, mixed with a creamy plain Greek yogurt! (So hey, I didn't feel horribly guilty for having some of this!) I guess you could say that it's in fact, a "Yogurt Ganache". The result, is this creamy, smooth, almost "cheesecake- like" flavor and texture, that is lemony, but just the right amount of fresh flavor so that it doesn't over power the sweet and sourness of the blueberries! I have to say that this pie was a real "hit" with the whole family, and most certainly didn't last long at all! So good, so easy, and a classic combination of flavors layered in a fabulous new way that will make you coming back for more!
