Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Fresh raspberries
• 4 ounces White chocolate
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 6 pieces Graham crackers
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

1. Chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge for 10 minutes to ensure the cream whips nicely.

Step 2

2. In the chilled bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip. Set aside in the refrigerator.

Step 3

3. Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method). Stir frequently to ensure smoothness and prevent burning.

Step 4

4. Once melted, remove the white chocolate from the heat and stir in the unsalted butter and lemon zest. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes.

Step 5

5. Gently fold the melted white chocolate mixture into the whipped cream using a spatula. Ensure a smooth and airy texture.

Step 6

6. Crumble the graham crackers into fine crumbs and set them aside.

Step 7

7. Lightly mash 1 cup of raspberries with the back of a fork, leaving some intact for texture. Fold the mashed raspberries into the cream mixture to create the 'spotted' pink look.

Step 8

8. To assemble, layer graham cracker crumbs at the bottom of individual serving glasses. Top with a generous spoonful of the raspberry cream mixture.

Step 9

9. Garnish each serving with the remaining fresh raspberries, a pinch of graham cracker crumbs, and a tiny sprinkle of salt for contrast.

Step 10

10. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to let the flavors meld together.
