Cherries and Blueberries With Frangelico Mascarpone

Description: Delicious and decadent! Definitely company worthy. If you are using sugar or Splenda granular, the equivalent is double the baking blend (please note: this is in the ingredients). If fat and calories are not a concern, you can increase the ratio of cream to fruit, if you like. Cook time is stand time.

Ingredients:

• 3 ounces mascarpone cheese
• 1 tablespoon Frangelico
• 1/2 tablespoon Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking, divided use (or 1 TBSP sugar)
• 1 tablespoon sugar-free strawberry jam (or regular or raspberry or cherry jam)
• 3/4 cup cherries, pitted (and halved or quartered)
• 1/2 cup blueberries (or omit and increase the amount of cherries)
• 6 amaretti cookies, hand crumbled (they are small, about one inch in diameter)

Steps:

1. Mix mascarpone, Frangelico, 1/2 of the sweetener and jam; refrigerate.
2. Combine cherries and blueberries with the remaining 1/2 of the sweetener. Let stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes (or chill, if you prefer).
3. Spoon mascarpone into a small shallow bowl or glass. Top with cherries and blueberries, sprinkle amaretti over; serve immediately.
