Frozen Dessert…

**Warning** This dessert is only for my paleo friends who can eat dairy… you could use Coconut Creme and turn that into a “whip cream” instead if you can eat it 🙂

A well kept secret {Ok maybe not that well kept} is that pre-paleo I had a HUGE sweet tooth. Not the sugary-sweet tooth but the SWEET tooth. Chocolate, whip cream, cake, cookies, brownies you name it I loved it. {However my sister was always the sugary sweet tooth kind of girl … like she used to loveee sour patch kids {ick}}. Anyhoo… this dessert is a bit of nostaliga for me. It combines my love of whip cream, ice cream, and Cheese cake into one easy to make dessert.

It’s actually pretty similar to the Italian Semi Freddo Dessert… so if you’re looking for something maybe a bit less paleo for a big crowd along these lines check that out!

Ok here’s the recipe!

Ingredients:
• Organic Heavy Whipping Cream
• Frozen Raspberries {Or you could use strawberries or blackberries}
• Raw Honey
• Salt

How To:
• Defrost a couple of Tablespoons of raspberries {or more depending on how much fruit you want and how much you’re making}. If you’re like me and lazy you’ll probably shove those suckers in the microwave and get them all room temp that way! Do Not Drain it though, you want the liquid

• I started with half a pint of Heavy Whipping Cream {Which was enough for a regular soup bowl sized dessert} and hand beat it into Whip Cream.  — **Guys, it’s not that hard to make whip cream by hand, it takes less than 5 minutes. Don’t be lazy and bring out the mixer that weighs more than your three old and takes up more counter space than you actually have. Don’t look at your hand mixer longingly… do it by hand. You get a much better whip cream and it’s mini-arm workout!

• In another tiny bowl scoop out a tablespoon of you raw honey and melt it in the microwave. Then add maybe half into your whip cream, beat it in … taste if it’s not sweet enough add more if it’s good don’t add more.

• Add in the smallest amount of salt.. like so little you almost don’t notice you put it in.. but trust me it makes a difference.

• Then in either one big bowl or tiny ramekins {so divide your whip cream and berries evenly} scoop some whip cream on the bottom spread it out, add your fruit {with it’s liquid!}, add remaining whip cream. Cover well with plastic wrap and freeze it for at least 3-4 hours.

Boom, you’re done… enjoy!
You can add vanilla or cinnamon or nutmeg to this, but I didn’t have any of it…so I didn’t worry about it!
