Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Make the Cream
- Beat the heavy cream in a bowl with a mixer or whisk until soft peaks just begin to form. Beat in the vanilla and the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Gently fold into the yoghurt if you are using.
