Ingredients
  

  • 2 CUPS STRAWBERRIES
  • 1 TEASPOON CASTER OR VANILLA SUGAR
  • 2 TEASPOONS POMEGRANATE JUICE I USED SPARKLING GRAPE JUICE; I THINK OJ, CRANBERRY OR APPLE JUICE SHOULD BE FINE TOO
  • 2/3 CUP ALL-PURPOSE CREAM
  • MERINGUE COOKIES I DON’T KNOW HOW MANY I ACTUALLY USED; USE AS MANY AS YOU LIKE TOO, STORE-BOUGHT OR MAKE YOUR OWN IN ADVANCE OR THIS DESSERT WON’T BE AS EASY AND QUICK ANYMORE 😉

Instructions
 

  • HULL AND CHOP THE STRAWBERRIES AND PUT INTO A BOWL AND ADD THE SUGAR AND JUICE AND LEAVE TO MACERATE WHILE YOU WHIP THE CREAM.
  • WHIP THE CREAM IN A LARGE BOWL UNTIL THICK BUT STILL SOFT. ROUGHLY CRUMBLE IN 4 OF THE MERINGUES NESTS – YOU WILL NEED CHUNKS FOR TEXTURE AS WELL AS A LITTLE FINE DUST.
  • TAKE OUT ABOUT HALF A CUPFUL OF THE CHOPPED STRAWBERRIES, AND FOLD THE MERINGUE CREAM AND REST OF THE FRUIT MIXTURE TOGETHER.
  • ARRANGE ON 4 SERVING PLATES OR GLASSES OR IN A MOUND, AND TOP EACH WITH SOME OF THE REMAINING MACERATED STRAWBERRIES
