RASPBERRY DESSERT WITH VANILLA SAUCE
This delicious fruity dessert comes from my German background. Mom always called it "Rote Grütz." We had a large raspberry patch, so she served it often in summer, when fresh berries were in season. -Marie Baumgartner, Stoughton, Wisconsin

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality pistachios. Look for pistachios that are bright green and have a sweet, nutty flavor.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the pistachios by hand. Just be sure to chop them very finely.
- Be sure to toast the pistachios before using them. This will enhance their flavor and make them more fragrant.
- If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the dessert will be less rich and creamy.
- You can adjust the amount of sugar in the raspberry sauce to taste. If you like your sauce more tart, use less sugar. If you like it sweeter, use more sugar.
- Be sure to let the raspberry sauce cool completely before serving. This will help it to thicken up.
