Hollywood Bogaerts– Paleo Chocolate No Bake Cookies

Garlic Ice Cream
A Story of Pie-Apple Pie
When we went to school we ate sugar-filled goodies, nuclear coloured food, and lots of what we would now consider to be called mystery meat. My mother would set the table up every few months for her canasta club and either bake pineapple-cream cheese squares or serve a big apple pie with slices of cheddar cheese on the side. Read this story and come buy a pie from Grandma Garretts kitchen at the Carleton Place Farmer’s Market.
Gramma Garretts Kitchen Lynda McKee. A large assortment of baked good, yummy squares, cookies and pastries can all be found at Gramma Garretts stall. Come stop by and load up on your favourites.
My Grandmother baked every single day of her life. I owe my fondness of sweets to her– which some days I don’t know if that is a good thing. But, when you can’t bake, or you just want to taste Grandma’s baking once again– head down to the Carleton Place Farmer’s Market. If you can get through the crowds-buy some goodies from Lynda at Grandma Garrett’s Kitchen. You just know that the goodies are all from the recipes that are keeping her Grandmother’s legacies alive. I will leave you with pictures. No words needed in this case.

Berry Crisp Parfaits
-
Serves 6
Ingredients:
For the fillings:1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
2 tablespoon lemon juice, divided
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 oz Philly Cream Cheese
1/4 cup confectioners sugarFor the crisp layer:
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup rolled oats (regular oatmeal)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamonMethod:
In a glass bowl, combine the raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon lemon juice and stir well. Do the same in a separate bowl with the blueberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Gently press the berries with a masher to release some juices. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for about 2 hours (or overnight).
In the bowl of an electric mixer with a wire whisk, beat the heavy cream, cream cheese and confectioners sugar until it turns to stiff peaks. Transfer to an airtight container and chill until ready to assemble.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Make the crisp layer. Combine flour, sugar and butter and using a pastry blender, two forks or a food processor until it looks like course crumbs. Add oats and cinnamon and mix a little more. Spread in a pie pan and bake about 10 minutes or until just brown and crumbly.
Assemble the parfaits. When the berries have softened and released their juices, place about 3 tablespoons of raspberries and some juice in the bottom of 6 6-oz serving cups. Add 1/4 cup of whipped cream mixture to each and smooth the tops. Place about 2 tablespoons of crisp on top. Add about 3 tablespoons of blueberries on top. Repeat with another whipped cream layer. If making ahead, cover each parfait glass with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator. This can be done up to one day ahead.
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries. Serve with additional crisp on the side, if desired.
