Raspberry Hearts
1 store-bought pound cake
1 pint raspberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chilled whipping cream
Slice pound cake into 4 (1-inch) slices. With a
medium-sized heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out hearts
from each slice of pound cake. Set aside. In a medium
bowl combine 1/2 the raspberries and the sugar. Crush
berries with a fork. Add remaining raspberries to the
bowl. Add the lemon juice and mix well. Whip chilled
cream until the soft peak stage. Using 2 dessert plates,
place 1 heart on each plate. Pour 3/4 of the raspberry
mixture over each cake. Cover cakes with another pound
cake heart. Top with whipped cream and remaining
raspberry mixture. Yield: 2 servings
