Strawberry Fool - by Martin
This sweet and creamy dessert will be a hit with the family. Serves 4.
Ingredients
- 8 oz of strawberries or raspberries
- 2-3 tablespoons of icing sugar (caster sugar can be used but it doesn’t dissolve in the fruit as well)
- 1 cup of cream
Cooking Instructions
Combine the strawberries with icing sugar and mix the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is soft and pulpy. It is best to have a slightly lumpy texture which can be obtained by mashing the fruit and the sugar with a fork or potato masher, however you can just as easily use an electric bender.
Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Pour the cream into the fruit mixture, stirring constantly. Taste for flavor and add a little extra strawberries if required.
Pour into decorative glasses and chill. Serve accompanied with thin shortbread or wafers.
