Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 240 milliliters heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier, optional)
- 4 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water, then hull and slice them into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with the granulated sugar and orange juice. Toss gently to coat the strawberries. Cover and let them macerate in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
While the strawberries are macerating, prepare the cream. In a large, chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and orange liqueur (if using) to the whipped cream. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip as it may turn grainy.
To assemble the dessert, divide the macerated strawberries evenly among four serving glasses, reserving a few slices for garnish, if desired.
Top each glass with a generous dollop of the whipped cream mixture, evenly distributing it across all servings.
Garnish with the reserved strawberry slices and a fresh mint leaf for an elegant touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing and decadent treat!
