Blackberry Mush

This is a recipe that my mother made when I was a kid. My sister has passed it on to me. I like best with plain cold milk or maybe vanilla ice cream.

I make this with a quart of blackberries, 4 cups of water and 1.5 cups of sugar (or 30 packets of Splenda. I bring the berries and water to a boil. I then mash the berries with a potato masher add the sugar and 6 teaspoons of corn starch and simmer for an additional 10 minutes. Just like my Grandpop use to do.

mmmmm yummy! I made exactly as directed and it was a simple and tasty ice cream topper :) I just love berries with vanilla ice cream. I really enjoyed the blackberries but think I'll do as another reviewer did and make it with raspberries next time! Thanks for posting! Made for your week 4 Football Pool win!
