Ingredients
Scale
1 cup crushed digestive biscuits or graham crackers
¼ cup crushed pistachios
¼ cup melted butter
1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cornstarch
1½ cups heavy cream
200g white chocolate, melted
½ cup pistachio paste
200g cream cheese, softened
2 tsp gelatin powder + 2 tbsp water
Cherry glaze or cherry compote
Fresh raspberries
Crushed pistachios
Instructions
In a saucepan, cook raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat until softened. Stir in cornstarch and simmer until thickened. Pour into small silicone molds and freeze until solid.
Mix crushed biscuits, pistachios, and melted butter. Press into the bottom of dome molds or silicone cupcake molds. Freeze to set.
Soften gelatin in water for 5 minutes. Gently heat to dissolve. In a bowl, mix cream cheese and pistachio paste until smooth. Add melted white chocolate and dissolved gelatin. Whip cream to soft peaks, then fold in.
Spoon mousse halfway into each mold. Press in frozen raspberry insert. Cover with more mousse and finish with biscuit base. Smooth and freeze for 4–6 hours or overnight.
Carefully unmold domes. Top with cherry glaze, fresh raspberries, and crushed pistachios before serving.
Notes
Ensure the raspberry insert is completely frozen before assembly.
Use high-quality white chocolate for a smoother mousse.
Let the domes sit at room temperature for a few minutes before unmolding for easier release.
