1

In 1-quart saucepan, place water; sprinkle with gelatin. Let stand 1 minute to soften. Heat over medium heat about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
2

In food processor, place remaining ingredients except berries. Cover; process 1 to 2 minutes, stopping processor to scrape down sides as needed, until very smooth. Stir in cooled gelatin mixture.
3

Line 3-cup shallow heart-shaped mold or bowl with cheesecloth, leaving cloth hanging over side of mold. Pour in cheese mixture; fold cloth loosely over top. Refrigerate at least 4 hours until just firm or overnight.

Place serving plate upside down over mold; turn plate and mold over. Remove mold. Garnish with berries.

Expert Tips

This classic French dessert will remind you of a very creamy no-bake cheesecake minus the crust. It can be made up to 2 days ahead.
Coeur à la crème molds can be found in gourmet shops. They are heart-shaped with holes in the bottom so liquid can drip off as the mold chills.
