Directions
1. Into a pot add 1 and 1/2 cups of mixed berries, juice squeezed from one lemon (seeds taken out), brown sugar. Heat it till the sugar melts.

3. In a large bowl, add fat free cream cheese (kept at room temperature), sugar, vanilla extract and lemon zest. Mix to combine all the ingredients well.
4. Add the whipping cream (cool whip), stir gently and set aside (or refrigerate until the rest of the ingredients are prepared).
5. Meanwhile, in the microwave oven slightly warm the liquid taken out of the berry sauce.
