SERVES 4
- 2 cups fresh berries (we like raspberries, blueberries, or sliced strawberries)
- 8 fluid ounces whipping cream, well chilled
- 2 tablespoons your favorite liqueur (try Amaretto, Grand Marnier or Limoncello)
- 2 tablespoons icing sugar, sifted (confectioner's sugar)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or rose water
- 1 cup sponge cake, cubes (optional)
- chocolate, for garnish or lemon, curls for garnish
- In a chilled bowl with chilled beaters, beat whipping cream until it begins to thicken.
- Add the liqueur, icing sugar, and extract, whipping constantly until soft peaks form. Do not over-beat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Right before serving, alternately layer the fresh berries with the Chantilly cream, and the cake cubes (if using) in dessert glasses or a trifle dish.
- Top with a dollop of cream and a berry, and add chocolate or lemon curls, if desired.
