1 c. sugar
2 1/4 c. water
2 env. unflavored gelatin
1 1/2 c. dairy sour cream
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. whipping cream, whipped

Dissolve sugar and gelatin in water over low heat. Remove from stove; stir in sour cream and vanilla until smooth. (I use electric mixer.) Chill the mix until slightly thickened (like unbeaten egg whites). Fold in whipped cream until well blended. (I use mixer again!) Pour into greased 6 cup ring mold, chill until set.

TOPPING:

1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen raspberries
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. cornstarch, or a little more
Dash of salt
1/2 c. water

Mix cornstarch, sugar and salt. Add water and thawed raspberries. Bring to boil and simmer until thickened.
