Posted by Andie Evans
Makes 6 servings

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1 c. cold water
2 c. whipping cream
1 1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
16 oz. sour cream
1 c. raspberries, strawberries or other fruit

Sprinkle gelatin evenly over water; do not stir. Combine whipping cream and sugar in heavy saucepan or double boiler over hot water. Heat over low heat to lukewarm. Stir in gelatin mixture. Heat gently until sugar and gelatin are thoroughly dissolved. Remove from heat; cool. When mixture begins to thicken, fold in vanilla and sour cream. Pour into pretty serving bowl or individual dessert dishes. Refrigerate until set, about 4 hours. Before serving, top with well-drained berries.

  1. This is a great recipe. It reminds me of a wonderful dessert served at Lutsen Resort. But their's was called Swedish Creme and it had
    1 tsp of almond extract. They served it with white rice and fresh fruit (like a rice pudding).
    Thanks Paul!
