Ingredients

Servings 6

1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons finely chopped pesticide-free rose-scented geranium (pelargonium) leaves
1/4 cup sugar
4 oz cream cheese, softened
3 cups blackberries (13 oz)
1 1/2 cups blueberries (8 oz)

Instructions

Heat cream, geranium leaves, and sugar in a metal bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring until sugar is dissolved and cream is hot but not boiling, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly, then chill until cold, about 45 minutes.
Pour cream through a sieve set into a bowl and discard solids.
Beat together cream cheese and cream in a bowl with an electric mixer until thickened (cream should not hold peaks), about 2 minutes.
Divide blackberries and blueberries among 6 bowls or parfait glasses and top with cream.

Why this Berries with Geranium Cream works for PCOS

Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Berries with Geranium Cream works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
