Notes: This recipe is from the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, 12th edition. It calls for 2 cups of blueberries and has a variation for 2 cups of raspberries, but I had one cup of each and thought they would work well together. It is really tasty!! My husband and I couldn't stop eating it!

I'm going to try this...I'm going to the cannery tomorrow to work a shift to get some frozen blueberries and raspberries for a great price. That will be one of the first things I make with them!
