    In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, stir sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Add 1 cup of the blueberries. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in lemon juice. Cool 15 minutes. Stir in remaining blueberries and the raspberries. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Thaw the frozen puff pastry on the counter about 15 minutes. The pastry should be chilled but still pliable when you're ready to work with it. If the pastry gets too warm, the butter layers will flatten and the pastry won't puff as high when it bakes.
  • tip 2
    Store raspberries and blueberries in their original container or spread out in a dish or pan lined with paper towels. Raspberries are very fragile. Plan to use them within a day or so to avoid moldy berries.
