Strawberry Fool
By: bluemoon downunder
May 16, 2005
Just loved the wording in this quick and easy recipe from "The Vancouver Sun Newspaper", which I found on the StrawberryJAMM website. In what I’ve included here as step two is an invitation to make a decision! A decision as to what sort of fool you want to make: ‘a smooth fool or a lumpy fool’! I haven’t made this recipe – yet. Have just added it in preparation for the May 2005 "Let’s Get Fresh and SWAP - Recipe Swap". But I do find it appealing, in its simplicity and its quaintness. And in what sounds like its sheer deliciousness. Must confess I’d want to sneak in some liqueur.
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 3/4 cup sour cream or creme fraiche
- 4 cups berries
- 1/2 cup sugar
Directions
1
Whip 1/2 cup (125 mL.) whipping cream and stir in 3/4 cup (175 mL.) of dairy sour cream or créme fraiche.2
Then make a decision: Do you want a smooth fool or a lumpy fool? If the answer is smooth, puree 4 cups (1 L.) of berries with 1/2 cup (125 mL.) sugar (less if they taste sweet enough) in a blender or food processor. Fold the cream into the fruit puree and chill. If you want a lumpy fool, mash the strawberries and sugar together with a potato masher, then fold in the cream.

Used sour cream and mashed for a lumpy fool. So yummy and quick to make. Want to try this with other berries also.

I had a lumpy fool- no not my dh- this dessert! lol This was very easy and fresh- I used nonfat plain yogurt rather the sour cream- less calories and more nurtitious. Very nice- naturally sweet treat! Thanks BlueMoon!

This was good. I had a cross between a lumpy and a smooth, don't ask 
Very easy to make and a light dessert. The sour cream gave it a nice tang, probably better with creme fraiche. Will try that way next time!
