Blueberry bombs have one serious flaw—they disappear from plates way too quickly. This dessert pampers the taste buds and sneaks cottage cheese and fruit into the diets of the youngest. Try it, and you won't stop at just one serving.

Prepare blueberry bombs for an afternoon snack; your loved ones will be ecstatic. This simple dessert can impress as if it were crafted by a chef from a top restaurant. All you need to do is mix blueberries with cottage cheese and whipped cream.

Blueberry bombs: The perfect dessert for summer with seasonal fruits

Blueberry bombs, besides offering the taste of seasonal fruits, combine creamy and fluffy whipped cream with the delicacy of cottage cheese. They are an ice cream dessert since they are eaten after freezing. The hardest part of making blueberry bombs is waiting for them to be ready to take out of the freezer.

You can prepare blueberry bombs with any additions you like. Instead of blueberries, choose other fruits, such as raspberries or apricots, and use ground nuts for coating. There are many options. Using a silicone mold with semi-spherical indentations is also a good idea. This way, the bombs will have a perfect, smooth shape.
