How to Berry Freeze

This is a perfect topper to any 4th of July party. The berry mix can even be varied to include red white and blue layers.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 3 cups (1 lb) fresh raspberries
• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon kirsch
• 1 1/2 cups chilled heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup sour cream

1. Add and mix 2 1/2 cups raspberries, powdered sugar, and kirsch in the blender until creamy. Place in a large mixing bowl.

2. Using your mixer, beat cream in another large mixing bowl until peaks form. Add sour cream and beat long enough to blend.

3. Fold whipped cream mixture into raspberry mix until distributed.

4. Divide mousse among six 6 parfait glasses. Cover each with plastic wrap and freeze. Set out on the counter to thaw as you begin to make dinner about 2 hours in advance of serving. Uncover the glasses and top with the rest of the berries.

Tips & Warnings

• Decorate with mint springs or whipped cream.
• Watch out for berry allergies.
