  • blackberries: 3 cups (fresh)

  2. Heat on medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and continue stirring, occasionally, 7 to 10 minutes, making sure the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.

  4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line an 8x 8-inch baking pan with a large piece of parchment paper, covering the bottom and coming up on 2 sides, to make a sling. Spray parchment paper and exposed sides of the pan with cooking spray.
