Baked Mascarpone and Blueberry Dessert : Simple, Easy, Low Carb

This popular recipe is from Pascale Naessens, it's a sugar-free yet deliciously decadent low-carb dessert which has only three ingredients, so simple and easy!


Ingredients
Serves Two
9g carbs per serving
2 egg yolks
200 g (7 oz.) mascarpone cheese
100 g 
(3½ oz.) fresh blueberries (strawberries, or raspberries could be used).
Instructions

Mascarpone originated in the Lombardy region of Northern Italy during the Renaissance. It is ivory-coloured, exceptionally smooth, and an easily spreadable fresh cream cheese. The flavour is milky and slightly sweet. The rich, buttery texture comes from the high butterfat content. Mascarpone generally comes in tubs, and it should remain refrigerated. Check the "use by" date on the package for storage time, but it's generally a week.

Never heard of this cheese, but of course I wasn't looking for it. With blueberries on sale this week, I'll take a look for it. Sounds like something I would like to try.

I love a bowl of blueberries, fresh, without anything else, but I could be talked into trying this one.

This looks so delicious. I'll definitely give it a go. Especially since my Piano Man went crazy blueberry shopping.
