That Huckleberry Dessert image

My Sister Suzie, found this recipe in the 80's (or maybe earlier) printed in the Twisp /Methow Valley WA newspaper. I have kept the original clipping all these years in anenvelope in my favorite cookbook. It is truly a special dessert, rich and creamy. I love the sweet, high mountain huckleberries we have in WA and this recipe & huckleberry jam are my favorite ways to prepare them. Time listed includes chilling time. I have also used raspberries & blackberries and it was still wonderful.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my crust turned out soggy.

I used frozen huckleberries and they worked just fine.

The huckleberry filling was a bit too tart for my taste, but the rest of the dessert was delicious.

This dessert was a hit with my family! The combination of huckleberries, cream cheese, and whipped cream was divine. The crust was also perfectly flaky and buttery.
