Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Fresh raspberries
- 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 150 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 200 grams Digestive biscuits or graham crackers
- 50 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
1. In a food processor, crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse a few more times to combine. The mixture should resemble wet sand.
2. Take your serving glasses or a single trifle dish and press a layer of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each glass. Use a spoon to flatten it evenly. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully incorporated and fluffy.
5. Begin layering the dessert: Add a generous layer of the mascarpone mixture on top of the cookie crust in your serving glasses.
6. Add a layer of fresh raspberries on top of the mascarpone layer, pressing them gently to ensure an even layer.
7. Repeat the layers (crumb mixture, mascarpone cream, raspberries) until the glasses or dish are filled, ending with a layer of raspberries on top.
8. Optional: Decorate the top layer with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a sprig of fresh mint for garnish.
9. Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the layers to set.
10. Serve cold and enjoy your Raspberry Layered Dessert!
