Force puree through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl to remove seeds.  You should have about 1 1\/3 cups of puree.  Set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-95370099ef0c585a859ebdb103cf740f wp-block-paragraph\">Pour 3 tablespoons of water into a small microwave safe bowl.   Sprinkle gelatin evenly over water, then let it rest for 5 minutes.  Heat gelatin mixture in microwave for 30 seconds.  Remove and whisk for 1 minute, let cool for 4 minutes until just warm, but not cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-4ee33e0cc6a60b9b42aa00235631d673 wp-block-paragraph\">Between stages of gelatin resting, prepare whipped cream and cream cheese mixture as listed here. In a mixing stand bowl or large bowl using a hand mixer, whip heavy cream on high until soft peaks form.  Add 1\/4 cup of powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.  If using a hand mixer, just shake off beaters, no need to wash for next step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-2b7a70aaa2394927c321f786c52528b5 wp-block-paragraph\">In a separate large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer, blend cream cheese and 1 1\/2 cups of powdered sugar until combined.  Add vanilla.  Increase to high speed and whip until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.  Mix in strained raspberry puree, and add in lukewarm gelatin\/water mixture and mix until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-609b101d2713187a50fb1a61e3bf8538 wp-block-paragraph\">Fold in 1\/3 of whipped cream mixture, then add the remaining and fold just until combined.   Evenly divide the moose mixture into your serving dishes of choice.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours until set.  Before serving, if using, sprinkle crushed graham cracker over moose and top with fresh raspberries and a mint leaf.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Light, fresh, and absolutely delicious!
