Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for raspberries)
- 2 cups Vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 cups Fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for blueberries)
Instructions
1. Start by preparing the red layer: In a blender or food processor, combine the fresh raspberries and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds. Set aside.
2. Prepare the white layer: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the vanilla Greek yogurt and powdered sugar until fully combined. Set aside.
3. Prepare the blue layer: In a blender or food processor, combine the fresh blueberries and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the skins. Set aside.
4. Begin layering the dessert: In an 8x8-inch baking dish or individual serving glasses, spread the raspberry purée evenly to form the red layer. Freeze for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly firm.
5. Once the red layer is firm, spread the white yogurt and cream mixture gently on top to create the white layer. Freeze again for 15-20 minutes.
6. After the white layer is firm, spread the blueberry purée evenly on top to form the blue layer. Freeze the entire dessert for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully set.
7. Before serving, allow the dessert to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easier slicing or scooping. Serve chilled and enjoy!
