    Ingredients

    • 7 egg yolks
    • 1/2 cup sugar
    • 1/4 cup Grand Marnier
    • 2 cups heavy cream
    • Grated zest of 2 oranges
    • Raspberry Sauce:
    • 2 pints raspberries
    • 1/4 cup sugar
    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

    Directions

    1. Semifreddo: Butter an 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 by 3 1/2 inch loaf pan or terrine and line with plastic wrap. Set aside.
    2. Place egg yolks and sugar in a bowl. Using and electric mixer beat on medium high until light colored and fluffy. Gradually add Grand Marnier and beat for 2 more minutes.
    3. Place bowl over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
    4. Remove bowl from heat and beat with mixer on medium speed until cool. Transfer to a clean bowl. In another bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form and fold into yolk mixture. Fold in zest.

    6. Raspbery Sauce: Combine raspberries, sugar and lemon jucie in a saucepan. Cook until raspberries are broken down, about 10 minutes.
    7. Remove from the heat and strain through a fine strainer into a bowl.
    8. Place some of the sauce on the bottom of each plate and place a slice of the semifreddo on top.
