Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup chopped strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 0.5 tablespoon amaretto (optional – replace with water if you like)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 4 tablespoon lemon curd
  • 2 count amaretti cookies (you can replace with shortbread or even graham crackers if you prefer, crumbled)
  • 2 slices lemon for garnish

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Place the strawberries in a bowl with the granulated sugar. Stir together and leave to macerate for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes add the amaretto or water and roughly crush the strawberries with a fork. Put to one side.
  2. Whisk the cream and powdered sugar together so it’s thick and billowy, but not stiff.
  3. Take three glasses and layer the cream, spoonfuls of strawberry and dots of lemon curd. Sprinkle the top with crumbled amaretti and place a lemon slice on the edge of each glass before serving.

Enjoy this delightful Strawberry Lemon Fool, a perfect no-bake dessert for any summer gathering!
