A quick and easy dessert is always nice. With the fresh strawberry season going full tilt here locally, we are enjoying berries every day. A quick, easy, and calorie-laden dessert is Strawberry Fool. It is so pretty. Even in Christmas glasses!
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons lemon juice, fresh is probably best but bottled can be used
2 cups heavy whipping cream
Place 1 cup strawberries in a blender along with the sugar and lemon juice and blend until a nice purée. Put through a sieve to remove larger seeds. (I did put through a sieve but did not find many seeds remaining in the sieve.)
Whip the heavy cream until beautifully whipped but not dry.
Fold the strawberry purée into the whipped cream.
Layer the remaining sliced strawberries in the bottom of a pretty glass container then the fool. Make as many layers as you like. We only did one of fresh berries and one of the fool with a few berries on top.
Dear One really liked this!
