Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 2 large oranges
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine the mixed berries and honey over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
  2. Zest one orange and squeeze its juice into a separate bowl. Peel the second orange, remove the seeds, and chop the peeled segments into small pieces.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and orange zest until soft peaks form.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together egg yolks and orange juice until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the whipped cream, folding gently until fully incorporated.
  6. Divide half of the berry mixture into two serving glasses or dessert dishes. Top each with a layer of orange segments.
  7. Spoon or pipe the orange infused whipped cream over the orange layers evenly.
  8. Finish with the remaining berry mixture on top, and serve immediately.
