How to Make Raspberry Coeur A La Creme

  1. Drain 1 cup raspberries, reserving the syrup. Set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup milk and 2 teaspoons of the reserved raspberry syrup.
  3. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin over the milk mixture. Let stand for 1 minute to bloom.
  4. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. In a food processor, combine 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), ¼ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup plain yogurt, and the cooled gelatin mixture.
  6. Process until completely smooth and creamy.
  7. Pour the mixture into a 4-cup heart-shaped mold coated with cooking spray. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until completely firm (at least 4 hours or overnight).
  8. In a small, non-aluminum saucepan, combine the remaining reserved raspberry syrup (about ¼ cup) and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
  9. Whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until thickened.
  10. Gently stir in the reserved 1 cup raspberries. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  11. Unmold the gelatin mixture onto a serving platter.
  12. Garnish with fresh raspberries and serve immediately with the raspberry sauce.
