We had a this tonight. I replaced the cream with vanilla ice cream. Strawberries and {ice} cream has been my favorite dessert since I studied in London. My dad came to visit while I was there and it became our nightly treat.
My favorite part is the mint leaves though. Such a classic touch.
Strawberries with Mint Whipped Cream
1/4 cup sugar
2 packed cups fresh mint leaves and stems, coarsely chopped, plus sprigs for garnish
1 cup heavy cream
1 quart strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced
Enjoy!
I'm with you, Missy. I can't get enough of the fresh berries. (We currently have the raspberries and blueberries in the fridge..) This sounds deliciuos. Ice cream makes everything better, of course!
