Recipe Reviews

This dish (and the previous review) was so intriguing I just had to try it! And it's really quick and delicious! Think of a warm raspberry fool, unfortunately without the crème brûlée crust I had hoped for.

We used crème fraîche and half the amount of sugar mentioned, which was a good balance for us (though I thought it was a pity that it turned so runny, but I guess there's nothing to be done about that).

We had to keep it under the broiler for at least five minutes, but that's probably also because the broiler wasn't hot enough, and once we passed the 2 1/2 minutes, were checked it every 30 seconds or so, afraid to get it burned.

Probably works just as well with other berries such as blueberries or brambles. Serve in individual ramekins, just like Queezle Sister did - the alternative just doesn't look as nice...

Three simple ingredients - 3 minutes - and it will knock your socks off!

Here you layer sour cream (I used non-fat yogurt), fresh raspberries, a bit more yogurt/s. cream, and then a generous layer of brown sugar. About 2 1/2 minutes under the broiler - so it starts to melt - grab your spoon and go.

The only caution is don't let it broil too long. Its easy to burn the brown sugar. A great simple low-fat dessert.

And the best thing? A second helping only takes another 3 minutes!
