Today’s red, white, and blue creation are simple but extremely yummy patriotic parfaits.  Fresh raspberries and juicy blueberries and layered between a deliciously creamy goodness.  

The cream layer is composed of cream cheese, whipped cream and 2 sugars along with a little vanilla.  It is sweet yet has a slight tartness from the cream cheese and sour cream.  They have a sort of a cheesecake quality to it.  It is fabulous. This is the way to eat fresh berries!

• In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth with a hand mixer.  While mixing, drizzle in 1/4 cup of the whipping cream until blend and the mixture is smooth with no lumps.
• Beat in the remaining 1 3/4 cups whipping cream.  Beat until firm peaks form.  Then whip in the sour cream, vanilla, and powdered sugar until well blended.
