Calling all dessert enthusiasts!
Get ready to dive into the dreamy delight of fresh berries and cream 🍓🎉 Juicy berries and velvety cream create a flavor fiesta! But here's the secret sauce: pair it with Luc Belaire Luxe Rosé 🥂 The bubbly wine's fruity notes and refreshing taste elevate the dessert to pure bliss! Treat yourself to this magical combo 🎊
Ingredients:
- 2 cups mixed fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, etc.)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 bottle of Luc Belaire Luxe -Rosé
Instructions:
- Wash and dry the fresh berries thoroughly. If using strawberries, remove the stems and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Leave smaller berries like raspberries and blueberries whole.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat the cream, as it can turn into butter.
- Gently fold half of the mixed berries into the whipped cream, reserving the other half for topping.
- Once the berries are incorporated into the cream, transfer the mixture to a serving bowl or individual dessert glasses.
- Top the berries and cream with the remaining fresh berries for a beautiful presentation.
- Optionally, you can garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Serve the Fresh Berries and Cream immediately or refrigerate it for a short while before serving. The dessert is best enjoyed when the cream is still light and fluffy, highlighting the sweetness of the fresh berries. It's a perfect summer treat that pairs wonderfully with sparkling wines like Luc Belaire Luxe Rosé, creating a delightful balance of flavors.
Cheers!
