Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup almond powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 35 grams gelatin plain
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries and blueberries
  • 225 grams chocolate crackers
  • 75 grams butter melted and cooled
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 100 grams raspberries
  • 50 grams sugar
  • raspberries to taste
  • blueberries to taste

Method

  • In a bowl, whisk the cream until soft peaks form. Refrigerate.
  • To prepare the crust, crush the chocolate biscuits into a powder.
  • Add butter and milk (as needed) until you get a homogenous dough that's easy to shape.
  • Spread the biscuit dough in a springform pan. Refrigerate.
  • In a saucepan, combine the milk, almond powder, and sugar. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
  • In another saucepan, combine the gelatin and water. Once the mixture is soft and spongy (about 2 minutes) heat for a few seconds until the gelatin is well dissolved.
  • Pour the gelatin into the milk mixture, stir, and remove from heat.
  • Pour the mixture into a bowl. Place this bowl in a larger bowl full of cold water and ice.
  • Stir the mixture until it's cool, but still liquid.
  • Once cold, gently mix in the cream and the raspberries and blueberries, being careful not to smash them.
  • Add this mixture to the refrigerated crust, and smooth the surface until uniform.
  • Refrigerate until solid (at least 3 hours, or overnight).
  • To prepare the topping, in a saucepan on very low heat, simmer the raspberries with the sugar until you get a sort of jam.
  • Grind with a hand blender and let cool.
  • To serve, remove the crust and filling from the pan, cover with cold raspberry jam, and garnish with fruit.
