Blueberry Raspberry Cream Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Mash shortening into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture is crumbly. Gradually add cold water as needed, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto a flat work surface dusted with flour. Divide dough in half and form each half into a ball. Roll dough ball from center to edges into a circle 2 inches larger than the pie plate and about 1/8 inch thick. Wrap dough around rolling pin, starting on one side of the circle. Unroll over pie plate and trim dough. Roll remaining dough ball into a crust to fit the top of the pie and set aside.
• Beat egg white and 1 tablespoon water; brush over bottom of crust and set aside.
• Combine 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, lemon peel, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a bowl. Gently stir blueberries and raspberries into the mixture to coat; pour into the crust. Top with reserved pie crust. Brush top of pie crust with 1 tablespoon water; sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over the moistened top. Cut a few slits into top crust with a sharp knife.
• Bake in preheated oven until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 45 minutes. Set pie onto wire rack to cool completely before refrigerating.

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Finely grind ground cookies, nuts and sugar in processor. Add butter and vanilla; process until moist crumbs form. Press onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Wrap outside of pan with foil. Bake until crust is light golden, about 15 minutes. Cool. Maintain oven temperature.
• Make filling:
• Scrape seeds from vanilla beans into heavy small saucepan; add beans. Add cream and bring to boil. Cool completely. Discard beans.
• Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl until smooth. Add vanilla-cream mixture, sour cream and vanilla extract and beat until well blended. Beat in eggs 1 at a time.
• Gently mix 1 basket raspberries, 1 basket blueberries and cornstarch in medium bowl. Pour 2/3 of filling into crust. Sprinkle berry mixture over. Pour remaining filling over berries to cover. Bake until cake is golden and begins to crack around edges but still moves slightly in center when pan is shaken, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes (cake will fall).
• Make topping:
• Mix sour cream, sugar and vanilla in small bowl to blend.
• Gently press down any raised edges of cake. Spoon topping evenly over cake. Bake 10 minutes. Cool cake on rack. Refrigerate overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Melt jam in small saucepan over low heat. Brush some jam over top of cake. Arrange remaining berries atop cake. Gently brush berries with remaining jam. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Keep chilled.)
• Run small sharp knife around pan sides to loosen cake. Remove pan sides. Place cake on platter. Serve cold.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Mix blueberries and raspberries. Toss half of berry mixture with 2 Tbsp. flour. Mix remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Beat cream cheese, butter and granulated sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add milk, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla; mix well. Add flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Gently stir in berry mixture.
• Spoon into 12 muffin cups sprayed with cooking spray. Top with remaining berries; sprinkle with coarse sugar.
• Bake 20 to 22 min. or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 min. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.

Steps:

• Place flour in large bowl. Cut in cream cheese and 6 Tbsp. butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Shape into ball; wrap tightly. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, toss berries with sugar, tapioca and cinnamon. Let stand at room temperature until ready to use.
• Heat oven to 400ºF. Spoon berry mixture into 1-1/2-qt. round casserole sprayed with cooking spray; dot with remaining butter. Place pastry on lightly floured surface; roll into round 1 inch larger than diameter of top of casserole dish. Place over fruit; flute edge, sealing pastry to edge of dish. Cut several slits in pastry to permit steam to escape.
• Bake 40 min. or until crust is golden brown. Cool slightly before serving topped with COOL WHIP.
