Ingredients

Shortbread

Raspberry Crémeux

Raspberry Sorbet

Preparation

Shortbread

1. Prepare the Dough

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until just combined.

2. Shape and Bake

Press the dough into a greased 9-inch tart pan or shape into rounds. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow to cool.

Raspberry Crémeux

1. Make Raspberry Puree

In a blender, puree the fresh raspberries and strain to remove seeds. Set aside.

2. Prepare the Crémeux

In a saucepan, heat heavy cream and sugar over medium heat until sugar dissolves. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks and temper them with the warm cream mixture. Combine with raspberry puree and vanilla extract.

3. Chill

Pour the mixture into individual serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Raspberry Sorbet

1. Make the Sorbet Base

In a saucepan, combine water and sugar, heating until the sugar is fully dissolved. Allow to cool.

2. Blend and Freeze

Blend the raspberries and lemon juice with the cooled sugar syrup. Pour into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, then freeze until set.
