I turned the oven on this week. It was only on for like five minutes, though. That counts as cooking, right? I was flipping through the recipes of Real Food Fast by Nigel Slater (it’s a good one!) and found this really simple idea.
Mascarpone, raspberries and sugar. That’s it. Put it all under a broiler and you have a warm, creamy raspberry dessert.
I put the bursting berries on this simple cake, but you could also pair it with ice cream or cookies. Simple summer dessert at your fingertips. There you have it- Broiled Raspberry Brûlée! Oh and for another REALLY simple dessert recipe, try my Strawberry Crumble.
Let’s gather our THREE ingredients.
Mascarpone + raspberries.
Sugar sprinkled on top.
Hello, broiler.
GAHHHHH.
Oh look! There’s cake.
Don’t mind if I do.
I love when you get a raspberry that’s FILLED with the melty/sugary mascarpone.
Broiled Raspberry Brûlée
serves 2-3
recipe slightly adapted from Real Food Fast
- 2 pints raspberries
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
- 3 tablespoons turbinado sugar
Preheat oven to BROIL.
Place raspberries in a oven proof baking dish.
Dot marscapone evenly on top of raspberries, followed by sugar. Place 3-4 inches under the broiler and broil until marscapone melts and the sugar starts to caramelize, about 4-5 minutes . Serve warm with your favorite accompaniments.
