The yogurt semifreddo with raspberries and blueberries is a delicious dessert, perfect for serving after a dinner with friends or on special occasions. It’s made with fresh cream, yogurt, condensed milk, and a raspberry and blueberry compote. It’s simply a variant of Greek yogurt and raspberry cups, equally refreshing and delicious.
Easy to prepare and with the indicated quantities, you can choose to prepare it in individual servings or as a cake using a loaf pan. In the latter case, however, I recommend placing the dessert in the freezer for a few hours to solidify so it can be sliced. The result, in either case, will be a fresh, delicious semifreddo with a creamy, enveloping texture that will captivate both adults and children. Now, follow me into the kitchen because the yogurt semifreddo with raspberries and blueberries will be ready in a click!

Steps
To prepare the yogurt semifreddo, it is very important that the cream is well chilled from the refrigerator. First, place the cream in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before preparation. Then, clean the raspberries and blueberries very well by rinsing them under water. Drain them and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside a few fruits for the final decoration and place the remaining berries in a non-stick pan with sugar. Cook it for 10-15 minutes with a lid on low heat until it becomes soft and you obtain a sort of jam. Set aside 3 tablespoons in a small bowl for decoration and the rest in a bowl to cool.
Next, pour the cold cream from the refrigerator into a bowl with the condensed milk and yogurt, and beat with an electric mixer until you get a fluffy cream. Add the previously prepared and cooled fruit compote to the cream and mix with a spatula with upwards and downwards movements to avoid deflating the mixture. The compote does not need to be fully blended. This way, you will obtain a semifreddo with a variegated color and a unique visual effect.
Then line the loaf pan with plastic wrap, making sure it overhangs the edges of the pan. Pour the yogurt and red berry cream and level the surface well. Then close with the remaining part of the plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 5 hours. After the resting time, remove the pan and turn the semifreddo onto a serving plate and remove the plastic wrap. Then distribute the raspberry and blueberry jam that you had set aside.
Decorate the semifreddo with fresh raspberries and blueberries and mint leaves and serve. Before slicing it, leave the semifreddo at room temperature for a few minutes.
