As I have said before I love easy deserts , fruit deserts and deserts in a glass.

I either make this in a glass or a jar which you can buy cheap in kmart or big w.
Prep time : 15 minutes plus cooling

Ingredients:
300g mixed frozen berries
1/4 cup icing sugar, plus 1/4 extra
1 tablespoon orange juice plus one tablespoon extra
250g tub light spreadable cream cheese, at room temperature.
6 sponge finger biscuits ( savoiardi) halved lengthwise ( see below)
METHOD
1. Combine berries and 1/4 cup of icing sugar in a saucepan over low heat; stir for 5 minutes or until berries are soft. Drain berries and reserve the liquid.
Stir 1 tablespoon of the orange juice through the syrup ; cool
2.In a bowl using an electric mixer beat cream cheese and extra icing sugar until smooth and creamy. Fold through extra juice.
3. Place cooled syrup in a shallow dish . Dip biscuits into syrup mixture. Arrange in 4 x 1 cup serving glasses .
Top with cream cheese mixture, then the berries . Chill for 15 minutes before serving. Can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours prior to serving .
You can also substitute the sponge fingers for other biscuits or even plain cake. I do prefer the fingers
