Raspberry Summer Sensation Dessert

"My kids saw this in Kraft's "What's Cooking magazine" and decided to make it for dessert when we had their teachers over for lunch. This is a simple make-ahead dessert that appeals to the eye and the stomach! Cook time is freezing time."

  1. Amidst the heat wave, we decided we would throw a pool party for our friends and family along with BBQ, salads, etc, etc. I wanted to serve a desert that was a bit healthier then cookies or cakes but yet I wanted it to be summery and refreshing. This was sooo easy to make, very flavorful, and I received so many compliments on the desert. It became an instant favorites of my family which now request it every time the weather gets hot. My changes wore, sugar free pudding, fat free whip cream, served it drizzled with chocolate syrup or chocolate jimmies.
     
  2. This is great. I made it for Valentine's Day and my boyfriend loved it. I used a large-muffin muffin pan so I could make individual portions. Instead of fresh raspberries I used shaved dark chocolate. Great recipe!
     
  3. This is very refreshing, simple to make and has as many variations as there are sorbet or sherbet flavors. My FIL has made it with lemon sorbet and white cheescake pudding. It might also be nice with orange sherbet and white chocolate pudding for a "dreamsicle" flavor. Thanks for sharing this.
     
  4. This was an easy elegant looking dessert. I did the indivual servings in the muffin cups as another user did and everyone asked where I bought them. This was very light and refreshing after a very heavy meal. A+
     
  5. My DH also saw this in the magazine and we absolutely love it! We have made it several times. I have substituted White Chocolate Pudding instead of vanilla, and have also made it as individual servings in foil muffin cups with one raspberry on each. This makes a great shower or tea time treat!
