An easy substitute for the mascarpone, a soft Italian cream cheese, is 12 ounces cream cheese blended with six tablespoons whipping cream and 1/4 cup sour cream. Ingredients:

2/3 cup plus 12 raspberries |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 8-ounce containers mascarpone cheese |
Directions:
1. Blend 1 cup chopped strawberries, 2/3 cup raspberries and sugar in processor to smooth puree. Drop 1 whole strawberry into each of 4 Champagne flutes or wineglasses. Top with 2 rounded tablespoons mascarpone cheese and 2 tablespoons fruit puree. Repeat layering 2 more times. Top each parfait with some of remaining cheese, then 3 raspberries. Chill at least 1 hour or cover and chill overnight. |
