Ingredients: 4 cups mixed berries, fresh or frozen (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) 3 cups apple juice  1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups sour cream

Directions: Clean and stem berries if using fresh; thaw if using frozen. In a large saucepan combine berries, apple juice, cinnamon, and sugar. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Carefully transfer to blender and process until mixture is smooth and lump-free. Allow to cool. Return to blender and add sour cream; process on low until sour cream is fully incorporated. Spoon into serving bowls. If desired, garnish with additional sour cream and berries. Makes 6 servings. Recipe from Tiffany Melchers of Urbandale. *See more recipes in our soups & stews collection
