One of the simplest desserts in the world and also one of the most delicious. Mascarpone is a very rich unsalted cream cheese—more like cream than cheese—and is native to the Lombardy region of Italy. I have flavoured the cheese with Cognac, but it may also be flavoured with chocolate, coffee, liqueurs or just eaten plain.
Toss the berries in the sugar and leave them to macerate for 2 hours.
Divide the mascarpone into 6 portions and mound it in the centre of individual serving plates. Make a well in the centre of each mound of mascarpone and fill with Cognac. Sprinkle with the sugar and surround with the fruit.
