Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Set aside 4-5 whole strawberries for garnishing. Hull and chop the remaining strawberries into small pieces.
Place the chopped strawberries in a mixing bowl and sprinkle them with granulated sugar. Stir gently to combine and let them macerate for 10-15 minutes, allowing the natural juices to release.
In a separate, chilled mixing bowl, pour cold heavy whipping cream. Using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed, begin to whip the cream.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream once it starts to thicken, and continue whipping until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as it can turn into butter.
Gently fold the macerated strawberries (along with their juices) into the whipped cream, ensuring an even mix without deflating the cream.
Spoon the Strawberry Chantilly into dessert glasses or bowls.
Garnish each serving with a whole strawberry and a mint leaf for a fresh, elegant touch.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
