2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)

Prepare the blueberry topping: In a small bowl, mix the blueberries with blueberry preserves or pie filling. Add lemon juice for a touch of tanginess if desired. Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the cream layer.
Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Serve: Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Scoop the dessert into individual servings and enjoy its light, sweet, and fruity goodness!
