🛒 Ingredients (Serves 1–2)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 teaspoon sugar or honey (optional, depending on strawberry sweetness)
- 1 tablespoon plain or vanilla yogurt (or mascarpone for richness)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Optional toppings: crushed biscuits, chocolate shavings, chopped nuts, or mint leaves
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Strawberries
Rinse the strawberries well and pat them dry. Hull them (remove the green tops) and slice them into halves or quarters depending on their size. If they’re not very sweet, sprinkle them with a teaspoon of sugar or drizzle with honey and give them a quick toss.
Step 2: Mix the Cream Base
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of whipped cream with 1 tablespoon of yogurt or mascarpone. Add vanilla extract if using. This creates a creamy, slightly tangy base that pairs beautifully with strawberries.
Shortcut tip: If you’re in a rush, just use sweetened whipped cream or even flavored yogurt on its own.
Step 3: Assemble the Dessert
In a small glass, bowl, or ramekin, layer the dessert:
- Add a spoonful of the cream mixture at the bottom.
- Top with a layer of sliced strawberries.
- Repeat once if you have more cream and berries.
- Finish with an extra dollop of cream on top.
Step 4: Add Optional Toppings
Sprinkle crushed biscuits (like graham crackers or digestive cookies), drizzle with chocolate syrup, or shave some dark chocolate on top. Add a mint leaf for freshness and a nice presentation.
Step 5: Serve Immediately
This dessert is best enjoyed right away while the cream is fluffy and the strawberries are fresh and juicy. Grab a spoon and dig in!
