Photo: Honey Vanilla Fromage Blanc Recipe
Ingredients
- 32 ounces fromage blanc
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup good honey
- 4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- Vanilla seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean
To assemble, choose from:
- Ripe stone fruit such as peaches, nectarines, plums
- Berries such as raspberries and strawberries
- Citrus fruit such as oranges, cut in segments
- Raspberry Sauce
Directions
Stir the fromage blanc, cream, honey, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and vanilla seeds together in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
To assemble, spoon the fromage blanc mixture into shallow bowls. Place the fruit artfully on top and drizzle the dessert with raspberry sauce. Serve with extra raspberry sauce on the side. I find that some people like it less sweet with just a drizzle of sauce while others prefer more sauce.

Tasty? Yeah! I love this wonderful light dessert which still gives you a nice rich and silky feel without too much of the calories. When on a diet you can leave out the cream, but otherwise great dessert for entertaining, easy to transport if you need to go somewhere and you can make it in advance without baking. I sometimes leave out the citrus or put a little more vanilla depending on the mood. Thanks you for this wonderful find...

This is such a delicious recipe! I looked all over for fromage blanc and I couldn't find it, so I used mascarpone. I had to use a lot more cream because mascarpone is a lot thicker than fromage blanc. That being said, it was so thick, rich, creamy, and delicious.

This was honestly the BEST, prettiest, easiest dessert. I made it for a large dinner party and everyone absolutely loved it. Seriously, I like to bake, but this ridiculously easy recipe got raves like never before. I made the sauce a little different; didn't have framboise so used chambord. It was obviously still delectable. As far as the fromage blanc, Whole foods carries it. I used 3 of the 8 oz containers and could have used 4, but the mascarpone was sitting right next to it...and I ADORE mascarpone. So I used one 8 oz container of that instead of the fourth of fromage blanc. I just can't tell you how gorgeous and delicious this was with some fresh fruit in a bunch of little martini glasses. Perfect summer dessert.
