List of Ingredients




Crust:
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons ground almonds
1/2 tablespoon baking powder
6 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 egg yolk

Filling:
1 (10-oz.) pkg. frozen raspberries or strawberries in syrup, thawed, drained, reserving juice
1 pint Raspberry or Strawberry Sorbet, slightly softened*
2 pints (4 cups) Vanilla Ice Cream, slightly softened

Sauce:**
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
Reserved raspberry or strawberry juice
2 tablespoons orange juice


Recipe



Heat oven to 350°F. In medium bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, ground almonds and baking powder. With pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add almond extract and egg yolk; stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Press crumb mixture into bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Bake at 350°F. for 12 to 15 minutes or until crust is light golden brown. Cool completely.

In large bowl, combine raspberries and sorbet; gently stir, to fold raspberries into sorbet. Add ice cream into sorbet mixture; stir gently to swirl flavors. Spoon mixture into prepared crust, spreading evenly. Freeze 3 to 4 hours until firm.

In small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in reserved raspberry juice, about 1/3 cup. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture becomes clear and thickened. Stir in orange juice; cool.

Just before serving, let torte stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. Run knife around edge of pan; carefully remove sides of pan. Cut into wedges; drizzle with sauce. Garnish as desired.

8 servings

TIPS:
* To soften sorbet and ice cream, place containers in the refrigerator for 30 minutes OR until very easy to scoop.

** To make sauce in the microwave, combine sugar and cornstarch in microwave-safe 2-cup container. Stir in reserved raspberry juice, about 1/3 cup. Microwave on HIGH for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring halfway through cook time, until mixture becomes clear and thickened. Stir in orange juice; cool.
