Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mixed forest berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
- Optional: crushed graham crackers or cookie crumbs for topping
Instructions
- Wash all berries thoroughly under cold water. Gently pat dry with a clean towel.
- If using larger strawberries, chop them into bite-sized pieces to mimic a forest floor of varied terrain.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract.
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. For a quicker process, check out the KitchenAid Classic Iconic Stand Mixer.
- In serving glasses or bowls, layer the berries at the bottom.
- Add a generous dollop of whipped cream on top of the berries.
- Repeat the layers if desired, finishing with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cookie crumbs for texture.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves to evoke the lush beauty of a forest.
Notes
- Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.
- Consume within 24 hours for optimal freshness, especially with fresh berries that may soften over time.
