Method
- Place the blueberries in a pan with the lemon juice and 75g of the icing sugar and heat gently for about 5 minutes or until the blueberries are beginning to burst and you have a lovely sauce. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, slice the Madeira cake lengthways into 3 pieces and arrange in the base of a 25cm x 15cm shallow roasting tin or dish. Spread the blueberries over the top and spoon on the juices to soak into the sponge.
- Place the cream cheese, mascarpone and Marsala and the remaining icing sugar in a bowl and beat together well until smooth. Spread the Marsala cream over the cooled blueberries.
- Place in the freezer for about 20 minutes – this will help it set quickly.
- Sprinkle with the flaked almonds and dust with icing sugar to serve.

I love this recipe because it’s quick, has my favourite ingredients (Blueberries and Mascarpone) and is absolutely delicious.
