How to Make Frozen Raspberry Dessert

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. **Make the crust:** In a medium bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Let the crust cool completely.
  5. **Prepare the raspberry filling:** In a large bowl, gently thaw the frozen raspberries slightly (about 5-10 minutes at room temperature).
  6. Add the egg whites, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the raspberries.
  7. Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
  8. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the whipped cream into the raspberry mixture.
  10. Remove about 1/3 of the cooled crust and set aside.
  11. Pour the raspberry mixture over the remaining crust in the pan.
  12. Sprinkle the reserved crust crumbs over the top.
  13. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm.
  14. Let the dessert sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
