For a sweet ending, nothing beats fresh berries! In her Strawberry-Orange Fool, Mollenkamp modernizes a traditional English dessert with a touch of liquor.
Ingredients
1 Lbs fresh strawberries, hulled, medium dice (yields about 3 cups)
2/3 Cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp orange-flavored liquor such as Cointreau
1 Cup cold heavy cream
Steps
Blend two cups of the strawberries and 1/2 cup of the sugar in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Transfer to a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until bubbling and just thickened.
Set aside to cool, then refrigerate and chill for about 1 hour. Stir in remaining 1 cup of strawberries.
In a medium clean, cold, bowl, beat cream with remaining two tablespoons of the sugar and liquor until stiff peaks form.
Fold whipped cream into strawberry mixture. Chill foo until beginning to set, about 30 minutes.
