Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie

July’s Chocolate Raspberry cream pie just had to be made – a no-bake, no-fuss good-looking summer desert. It was as easy as was advertised – the only hard part was that I found myself making creme-fraiche again. Other than that this was really a snap.

It looks great – and it was great ! Creamy texture and a wonderful set of contrasts between the tang of Raspberry, the sweet and chocolate. Andrea loved it – she said it is easily in her top three deserts. ( perhaps the only thing was the crust set a little too hard – so it was hard to slice it out).

What I really like about this dessert is how many variants we thought of that would be equally wonderful – the same filling but in a cocktail glass with a wafer cookie, the same pie but with graham cracker crust, and either peach or kiwi. The possiblitlies are endless. File this under great ! And sebastian liked helping me make the crust as well…
