Ingredients
-
1/2 cup low-fat (1%) milk
2 tablespoons fat-free dry milk
1 package (12 ounces) frozen blueberries, thawed
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt, divided
1/2 packet unflavored gelatin
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
Directions
1. Combine milk and dry milk in a small bowl and whisk until well blended. Place in freezer 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine frozen blueberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and the salt in a medium saucepan over low heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until sugar has dissolved, berries have broken up, and mixture has reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes. Let stand until cooled to room temperature. Stir in 1/3 cup yogurt.
3. Sprinkle gelatin over cold water in a heatproof measuring cup. Let stand 5 minutes to soften. Set measuring cup in a small saucepan of simmering water and heat until gelatin has melted, about 2 minutes. Let stand until cooled to room temperature.
4. With a hand mixer, beat chilled milk until thick and soft peaks form. Add remaining 1 teaspoon sugar and beat to stiff peaks. Beat in gelatin mixture. Fold milk mixture into blueberry mixture.
5. Spoon into 4 dessert bowls or glasses. Chill until set, about 2 hours. At serving time, top each with a dollop of remaining yogurt and the fresh blueberries. One serving equals 1 dessert bowl or glass.
