Raspberry Fool with Toasted Angel Food Cake Recipe

Raspberry Fool with Toasted Angel Food Cake Recipe

  • 4 cups 1″ pieces angel food cake (from about 1/3 of a cake)
  • 2 1/2 cups raspberries (about 12 ounces)
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest plus more for serving
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread cake pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toast until edges are golden brown but centers are still soft, 8-10 minutes. Let cool; set aside.
  2. Using a fork, coarsely mash raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1 teaspoon lime zest in a small bowl. Let sit 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, beat cream, crème fraîche, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a medium bowl until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  4. Layer cake, raspberry mixture, and cream mixture in glasses or small bowls; top with lime zest.
