This is a dessert with the typical German ingredient pumpernickel bread. It could be called a German version of tifle, and there are several variations of it. If you don't have pumpernickel bread, you can also use any other dark stale bread, as long as it's a hearty, slightly sweet one. For the raspberry schnaps you can also use kirsch or Chambord. If you can get hold of vanilla sugar, use 2 tablespoons of it or more to taste. This dessert is not very sweet! Cooking time is resting time.
Ingredients:
10 ounces raspberries, frozen
3 slices pumpernickel bread
2 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons chambord raspberry liquor, or
2 tablespoons cherry juice
1/2 cup whipping cream
10 ounces yoghurt, plain
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
Directions:
1. Thaw the raspberries a little (they should not become too soft!).
2. Process the pumpernickel or bread to coarse crumbs, mix with chopped chocolate and put into glass bowl and soak with schnaps or juice.
3. Whip cream until stiff.
4. Cream yoghurt with the sugar and vanilla (or vanilla sugar).
5. Fold in whipped cream.
6. Pour yoghurt cream over soaked bread crumbs.
7. Top with raspberries and refrigerate for one hour or so (it tastes better if it's a bit soaked through).
