Quick and easy this Whole Berry Raspberry Curd is the perfect and tasty condiment that can be used on so many things from fillings, spreads and frostings!
Place the sugar and egg yolks in a small saucepan. Whisk to combine until smooth.
Add the raspberries and stir them in the best you can. Place over medium heat, stirring constantly until it comes to a boil. Make sure nothing sticks to the bottom. Continue to stir constantly for 4 minutes.
Take off the heat. (Optional: remove the seeds by straining the mixture through 2 layers of cheesecloth over a fine-mesh strainer. Gently press the mixture with the back of a spoon through the strainer until just the seeds are left, discard the seeds.)
Stir in the butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Let cool to room temperature on the counter.
Place in an air-tight container and place in the fridge until cold, about 4 hours. Use in your favorite dessert recipes or in place of jelly or jam.
