Ingredients
- 250 grams Fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 300 ml Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 large Meringues (store-bought or homemade)
- 50 grams Shelled pistachios, unsalted
- 5 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Place half of the raspberries in a small bowl and sprinkle with the granulated sugar. Use a fork to gently mash the berries until they form a chunky sauce. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large, chilled mixing bowl, pour the heavy cream and add the vanilla extract. Use a hand whisk or an electric mixer to whip the cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Step 3
Gently crumble the meringues into bite-sized pieces and fold them into the whipped cream, leaving some pieces larger for added texture.
Step 4
Roughly chop the pistachios, reserving a small handful for garnish.
Step 5
In a serving dish (or individual glasses), layer the whipped cream mixture, the raspberry sauce, the remaining whole raspberries, and a sprinkling of chopped pistachios. Repeat layers as needed.
Step 6
Top with the reserved pistachios and garnish with fresh mint leaves, if using.
Step 7
Serve immediately and enjoy your Raspberry and Pistachio Eton Mess!
