This easy, light and fluffy dessert melts in your mouth.
This delicious dessert idea was found in an old school fundraiser cookbook, which was originally made with raspberry jelly. This recipe with the addition of real raspberries really elevates the taste and texture.
This year I am going to serve this as an option for the children at Christmas.
The girls love it when I serve them in tall fancy glasses – just what they think they’d get if they were dining at a fancy restaurant.
All you need are five simple ingredients;
Frozen raspberries
sugar
gelatine
boiling water
eggs
fresh or freeze dried raspberries for the top (optional)
Can I make this without a cake mixer?
You sure can. Just use a hand held beater to beat your egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
