extract, if using, until creamy. If mixture is too dry to blend well, add a spoonful or two of
milk or cream.
  • To assemble, put a tablespoon of raspberries in each of 2 decorative glasses,
    small wine glasses, or small glass bowls. Add a layer of the cheese mixture, the rest of the
    raspberries (with a few reserved for the top), and the rest of the cheese. Top with a raspberry or
