Frustrating to make as there are no instructions about the blueberries or milk. It seemed a lot of milk too so I used about half and it worked well. Was intriged by beating and stirring inches?? Anyway I used my common sense and my husband loved the dessert. As for the typos........! I assume the writer is not a native English speaker.
