Raspberry Semifreddo
Semifreddo is a refreshing frozen yogurt dessert and although great for summer weather, I make it all year round. With eggs and yogurt in it, I know it’s a healthy treat to serve my family and that makes me feel good.Looking very elegant and being extremely simple to make, it’s perfect for dinner parties. And you can make it days ahead of time, which means you can relax knowing dessert is taken care.
Raspberry Semifreddo
Ingredients:
2 cups plain yogurt
3 eggs*
1/3 cup honey
—
1 cup fresh raspberries (about 8 oz), mashed slightly
1 teaspoon organic sugar
Directions:
Thoroughly mix yogurt, eggs and honey. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, folding the corners. Pour in the yogurt/egg mixture. Place in freezer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Mix raspberries and sugar together, mashing slightly. Allow to sit for 10 minutes. Pull out the semifreddo and break open the center of the loaf, Add the berries and swirl into almost frozen semifreddo loaf. Spread evenly- so it freezes with a flat “top”. Allow to freeze 6 hours or overnight.

This sounds really good. I’m just worried about the raw egg. Is that safe? What is the purpose of the egg?
Eggs give ice cream a rich flavor and creamy texture. As a real foodie, I use many raw eggs, (mayo, smoothies, ice cream, eggnog, etc) and I always check my sources. The chickens are free range, and fed organically. Free range means they aren’t very susceptible to diseases. You can find more info here:

This looks amazing! And since we have our own eggs, I don’t have to worry about where my eggs come from 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
I am preparing the side of my house for a few chickens next Spring. I can hardly wait to eat my own, home raised eggs!!!
This was really yummy, a little too much honey for me, but I can just drop that down next time. Question though… It went a little icy, any thoughts why and what I could change? Thanks
