This delicious dessert recipe was most recently served at my parents 29th (Yay Mom and Dad!) anniversary dinner and it was the one thing I let the whole family try. Everyone loved it!

Minted Strawberry Fool(Proof)
1 lb strawberries (hulled)
2 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp fresh mint leaves
1 c. heavy whipping cream
6 oz plain yogurt
Makes enough for six people.
Save a couple of strawberries for garnish.
Puree berries, sugar and mint in a food processor or blender. Taste to make sure they are sweet enough and add more sugar if needed.
Whip cream until it holds firm peaks. Fold in yogurt. Fold in berry mixture. Chill until needed or serve immediately. Garnish with slices of strawberries.
This dessert is perfect for the middle of summer - or just to REMIND you of summer when the rain seems endless and the sun refuses to shine...

It made our anniversary meal memorable (as did the homemade seafood ravioli!).You also need to share the portabello mushroom recipe! Really really good.
