Julie & Julia – Raspberry Bavarian Cream

IMG_2794
So a couple Saturday’s ago we finally saw Julie & Julia and I loved it!  I read the book and had a hard time getting through the first part of it. I don’t know what it was but it was hard for me to bond with the author. I have to admit though, by the middle of the book I was hooked and had to see it through. The information about Julia Child was great and Meryl Streep did a wonderful job portraying her! There was a scene in the movie where Julie made a dessert called Raspberry Bavarian Cream. It looked delicious and Isabella wanted some right then. She did a search on the internet and found the recipe here. So I made it last week. The recipe wasn’t as difficult as I thought but took some time to make. Pushing the raspberries through the sieve took some time since I only had a wire colander to push it through and folding in the egg whites and the whipped cream was difficult for me. I’m not sure when you fold, how much the ingredients are supposed to be combined. The kids didn’t think it was that good. It wasn’t what I thought it would be but tasted better after I tried it the second time. Ralph loved it so that made me feel better, however, I probably will not make it again, because it was a little time consuming and if the kids aren’t going to eat it, not worth the effort for Ralph and I and too many calories for us to consume the whole thing by ourselves.
