Step 2: Preparing the creamy base.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of whipped cream with 1 tablespoon of yogurt or mascarpone. Add vanilla extract if desired. This will create a smooth and slightly tangy base that pairs perfectly with strawberries.
Quick tip: If you’re in a hurry, simply use sweetened whipped cream or even plain flavored yogurt.
Step 3: Assembling the dessert.
In a small glass, bowl, or ramekin, layer the dessert ingredients:
Place a spoonful of cream at the bottom.
Top with a layer of sliced strawberries.
Repeat if you have any cream and strawberries left.
Finish with a quenelle of extra cream.
Step 4: Optional Toppings:
Sprinkle with crumbled biscuits (like Graham crackers or Digestive biscuits), drizzle with chocolate syrup, or grate dark chocolate over the top. Add a mint leaf for a touch of freshness and a pretty presentation.
Step 5: Serve immediately.
This dessert is best enjoyed right away, when the cream is smooth and the strawberries are fresh and juicy. Grab your spoons!
