Ingredients

  • 12 ounces (340 grams) fresh raspberries, plus 12 more for garnish
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 3 tablespoons granulated/caster sugar
  • 2 cups (473 ml) heavy whipping/double cream
  • 4 mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • Add the raspberries (except the 12 for garnish), lemon juice and sugar to a non-stick saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat just until they start to release some juices and soften. Remove from the pan to a bowl and allow to cool.
  • Whip the cream using a hand mixer until you see soft peaks when you remove from the cream.
  • If making ahead, stop here—store the cooled raspberries and whipped cream in separate bowls, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
  • When ready to assemble, fold half of the raspberry mixture into the whipped cream to create a pretty pink swirl. Divide between 4 glass bowls, layering the cream with the remaining raspberries. Top each with 3 raspberries and a mint leaf.
