Blackberry Lime Fool

Blackberry Fool

I have wanted to try one of the “fool” recipes I keep seeing in magazines and on other blogs.  Tonight I finally took action.  It is a very simple dessert taking less than ten minutes to whip up. It is related to trifles and tiramisu, a combination of pureed blackberries and whipped cream.

I cut down the sugar and added the juice of lime.  It is a cool summer treat for a hot summer night.

Blackberry Lime Fool

1 pint blackberries
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup sugar, divided
Juice of 1 lime

Puree blackberries in a blender or food processor.  Strain to remove the seeds.
Add the lime juice and 1/2 of the sugar.

Whip the whipping cream until it starts to form peaks.  Add the remaining sugar and continue to whip until stiff.  Fold in the blackberry puree.  If you want a rustic look leave it more streaked.

Place in serving dishes and refrigerate.

    Looks so bright and pretty. I just froze two big bags of blackberries we picked last week. This would be the perfect use for some of them.
