Life through a lens + Art Project - Foody Friday, Raspberry Dream



Raspberry Dream



Ingredients:

  • 3 plain digestive biscuits
  • 1 punnet of raspberries (or other berry fruit instead if you want)
  • 1 sachet of sugar free raspberry jelly crystals
  • 511g/1lb 2oz very low fat natural cottage cheese

1. Crumble the biscuits and press down in a serving dish (I used two heart shaped ramekins). Chop half of the fruit and layer on top of the crumb base.

2. Dissolve the jelly in 142ml/quarter pint of boiling water. Make up to 284ml/ half pint with cold water. Allow to cool. Put the cottage cheese and jelly into a liquidiser/blender etc and blend for 1 minute on fast speed (or until mixture is smooth). Pour over the fruit and refrigerate for 2 hours or until set.

3. When the dessert is set, decorate with the remaining fruit and if you want to can sprinkle some crumbled chocolate over the top. I used a square of white and milk chocolate and very thinly sliced it and sprinkled it over.


NOTE: If you wish with the bread crumbs you can melt some butter in a saucepan and then mix in the crumbled bread crumbs, then press down into your serving dish and leave in the fridge until it has cooled down and set. Once cool and set, chop the fruit and layer on the biscuit crumb base and continue from step 2.

  2. I have to say it was one of the tastiest desserts I'd had and it was so quick and easy to do. I'd love to know if you try it out and what you think of it.
