• 2 cl raspberry liqueur
• 3 sheets of gelatin
• 200 g whipped cream

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Rest time approx. 3 hours; Total time approx. 3 hours 25 minutes

Let the blackberries thaw. Drain the quark. Soak the gelatin in cold water according to the package instructions. Whisk the cream until stiff peaks form. Whisk the egg, sugar, and vanilla pod in a bowl until frothy. Then fold in the quark. Heat the raspberry liqueur and dissolve the squeezed gelatin in it – do not let it get too hot, so the gelatin doesn’t burn. Stir everything into the quark mixture and carefully fold in the cream. Chill the mousse for about 2 to 3 hours. Blend the blackberries and pass them through a fine sieve to remove the seeds. Then add the vanilla sugar and season with powdered sugar to taste. Pour a layer of the sauce onto dessert plates, scoop out two mousse dumplings with a tablespoon and place them on top. Add the whole blackberries. Tip: You can also sprinkle chocolate sprinkles or chocolate shavings over the dumplings.
