Today’s recipe is a perfect make-ahead dessert. It’s a lemon-raspberry semifreddo that comes together in about five minutes and is simply stunning. Keep in mind, since semifreddo is like a softened ice cream, it will need to set in your freezer for at least eight hours. But trust me, once you make this sweet and tart dish, you’ll see the wait was well worth it!
Sarah’s Tip of the Day:
This recipe calls for ladyfingers, the spongy cookies that were named for their resemblance to a woman’s curled pointer finger. But in certain parts of Southeast Asia, the same name is used to describe the vegetable okra (which we wouldn’t suggest using in desserts).

PREP: 15 MINS
TOTAL TIME: 15 MINS
SERVINGS:8
INGREDIENTS:
6 ounces raspberries (3/4 cup), thawed if frozen
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup lemon curd
10 ladyfingers
COOK’S NOTE:
The phrase semifreddo is Italian for “half cold” and refers to a partially frozen dessert.
DIRECTIONS:
STEP 1
Line a 4 1/2-by-8 1/2-inch loaf pan with 2 sheets of plastic wrap, leaving a 3-inch overhang on long sides. In a blender, puree raspberries and sugar, scraping down sides as needed. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids; discard solids.
STEP 2
In a large bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form. With a rubber spatula, fold in lemon curd. Spoon 2 cups cream mixture into pan and smooth top. Dip ladyfingers in raspberry puree and arrange in pan, parallel to long edges. Pour remaining raspberry puree on ladyfingers. Top with remaining cream mixture and smooth top.
STEP 3
Wrap pan with overhanging plastic and freeze 8 hours (or up to 2 weeks). To serve, invert onto a serving platter, remove plastic, and slice.
