BLUEBERRY MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• While blueberry mixture cools, beat cream with remaining 1/4 cup maple syrup in a bowl using an electric mixer until it just holds stiff peaks.
• Stir lemon juice and remaining 1 1/4 cups blueberries into cooled blueberry-maple mixture.
• Spoon about 2 tablespoons blueberry mixture into each of 6 glasses and top with half of crumbled cookies and half of whipped cream. Repeat layering of remaining blueberry mixture, crumbled cookies, and whipped cream.
