Well these pots were an unplanned delight. I had some double cream left over from a recipe I made and didn’t want it to go to waste, so thought what can I make that’s a quick and easy dessert to have. I had some left over biscuits to make the base. I didn’t have cream cheese in but I did have greek yogurt and it works perfectly with the double cream but feel free to use cream cheese if you have that instead.
I was unsure what flavour to make the pots as I didn’t have a lot in and these were a spur of the moment idea. I knew I had some blueberries in the freezer, so that was that! Making fruit compotes couldn’t be easier with frozen berries.
They are taste SO decadent because of the double cream and what’s even better is you don’t need to wait for them to set, so a perfect quick dessert to whip up!
I used Natvia sweetener as a healthy alternative to sugar, perfect for diabetics and people watching their sugar intake. You can sub this for caster sugar though if you would prefer.
