Jacques Pepin's recipes for smashing raspberry gratin and chocolate roulade.
Sept. 15, 2009— -- Chocolate Raspberry Gratin
Serves 4
This gratin of raspberries is a cinch to make. I always have IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) berries in my freezer and cookies in the pantry. When unexpected guests show up, this is ready to eat in minutes with spectacular results.
Ingredients
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Spread the frozen berries in a 4-cup gratin dish and distribute the crumbled cookies on top. Sprinkle on the sugar and Scharffen Berger chocolate morsels, dot with the butter, and bake in the 375-degree oven for about 20 minutes, until lightly browned on top. Serve lukewarm with the sour cream.
