Description
Delicate and delicious, you can’t go wrong with the combination of strawberries and cream.
Ingredients
500 g strawberries
3 Tbsp (45 ml) castor sugar
100 g cookies of your choice
1 C (250 ml) mascarpone
1 C (250 ml) double cream
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
2 Tbsp (30 ml) icing sugar
Instructions
Chop the strawberries and place into a bowl. Sprinkle over the castor sugar and mash with a potato masher until slightly broken up and the juices have been released.
Crush the cookies (I used my food processor) until they are sand-like. Whip the mascarpone and double cream with the vanilla extract and icing sugar until thick.
To assemble, place a tablespoon of the crumbs in the bottom of a glass, followed by some of the strawberries and a dollop of cream. Continue until the glasses are full and you have used up all the ingredients.
Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to serve.
