In a small sauce pan, bring the blueberries, lavender, sugar and cornstarch to a boil.

This sauce is also great for pancakes, pound cake or cheesecake!

Gingersnap Ice Cream Cups: Preheat the oven to 300 degree F. Grind the cookies in a food processor. If you don't have a food processor, place them in a zip bag and roll them with a rolling pin.

Bake the cups for 12-15 minutes. Allow them to cool, then lift them out with your fingers or a small knife. Makes 10-1

Place one scoop of ice cream in each cup and top with blueberry-lavender sauce.

This recipe is especially good with vanilla bean, lemon curd, or peach ice cream!
