Frozen Blueberry Lime Squares
Frozen Blueberry Lime Squares
Ingredients
- 7 graham cracker squares
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
- 1 can (14 ounces) fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 2 teaspoons lime zest
- Blueberry-Pineapple Salsa (included in directions)
Directions
Lightly oil a 9-inch square pan. Cover the bottom of the pan with graham crackers in a single layer, breaking pieces to fit. In blender, puree blueberries, cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk until smooth; add lime juice and zest; blend well. Spoon blueberry mixture onto the graham crackers and spread evenly. Cover and freeze until solid, about 2 hours. To serve, remove from freezer and leave at room temperature until edges soften, about 10 minutes. Cut into 9 squares; serve on dessert plates with Blueberry-Pineapple Salsa. (Return any unused squares to the pan, cover tightly and freeze.)
