Adults-Only Amaretti Crunch Dessert Recipe

Reserve 6 raspberries for garnish. Place remaining raspberries in a saucepan and add 2 tablespoons sugar water and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over low heat and cook stirring occasionally until raspberries break down 5 to 7 minutes. Drain through a fine mesh sieve set over a bowl to remove seeds and reserve raspberry sauce.

Combine amaretto liqueur heavy cream and remaining sugar in a mixing bowl. Whip until soft peaks form. Add mascarpone cheese and blend thoroughly.

Place 1 or 2 tablespoons crushed amaretti in the bottom of a serving glass. Add whipped mascarpone mixture and a layer of raspberry sauce. Repeat layers and top with 1 reserved raspberry and 1 whole amaretti cookie. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
