Easy Strawberry Fool
This Strawberry Fool recipe is an easy twist on a British classic dessert! A layer of sugary strawberries, strawberry puree and fresh strawberry-vanilla whipped cream. So easy and so delicious
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups fresh strawberries hulled
- ½ cup + 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- vanilla bean
- 1 cup whipping cream
Instructions
- Cut 1/2 cup strawberries into small pieces and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar. Set aside.
- Add remaining 2 cups of strawberries and 1/2 cup of sugar to a food processor and process until smooth. Transfer to a fine mesh sieve and push through releasing the liquid into a clean bowl. Discard solids. Set aside 3 tablespoons in a small dish, and refrigerate remaining puree until ready to use.
- Into the bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer and large bowl) add whipping cream, seeds from the vanilla bean, and reserved 3 tablespoons of strawberry puree. Whip on medium high until soft peaks form.
- Assemble by dividing sugared strawberry bits into 4 dessert cups, divide the strawberry puree pouring over the strawberries. Add 1/4 of whipped cream mixture on top of each. Garnish with a fresh sliced strawberry and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
If you don't have a food processor, simply use a potato masher, and mash the strawberries and sugar until as smooth as possible before pushing them through a fine mesh sieve and discard solids, reserving liquid.
