Raspberry Fool

Ingredients:

-3 1/2 cups fresh raspberries (save a 1/2 cup for layering)
-1 cup heavy cream
-1/4 cup of sugar
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Mash 3 cups of fresh raspberries in a bowl. Set aside.
2. Whip cream with sugar & vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
3. Fold in raspberry puree mixture (it’s nice to see ribbons of red in the final mixture)
4. Serve in a fun cup/bowl/dish and alternate layering raspberries & cream.
5. Top with a yummy cookie! (I used shortbread)
6. Put into the fridge for an hour or just devour immediately!!!

It’s incredibly light & creamy. The only problem I ran into…is wanting MORE!

*** DO NOT- UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CHECK THE NUTRITIONAL FACTS ON THE BACK OF YOUR WHIPPING CREAM CONTAINER***

    Checking the nutritional value is indeed dangerous and leads to self hate. I think concentrating on the fruit content is more enjoyable
