Test Kitchen Tip
If you decide to freeze the icebox dessert longer than six hours, make sure to let it sit out at room temperature to soften before serving.
Instructions
Macerate raspberries, 1 cup sugar, and lemon juice; crush with a fork.
Whip heavy cream to stiff peaks; refrigerate until ready to use.
Beat cream cheese and remaining ¼ cup sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy.
Add raspberry mixture to cream cheese mixture; beat until smooth.
Fold in whipped cream until no white streaks remain.
Line a 9-inch cast-iron wok with plastic wrap to hang over the sides.
Arrange a single layer of wafers along the bottom of the wok. Top wafers with 2 cups raspberry mixture, spreading to the edges. Repeat layering two more times. Press remaining wafers into the top, making this the last layer.
Fold plastic wrap over dessert and cover with foil. Transfer dessert to freezer and freeze until firm, about 6 hours, or overnight.
By allowing the raspberries to macerate (or soak) in sugar and lemon juice, helps the raspberries release more of their natural juices.
