Dessert “fools” are fresh fruit purées folded into softly whipped cream. Their silly name belies a delicious summertime dessert.

Ingredients

  • 8 ripe medium-sized mangoes
  • cups heavy cream
  • Pinch salt

Method

Peel the mangoes and remove the flesh from the pits. Purée the mango flesh in a food processor fitted with the stainless steel blade. Pass the purée through a medium-sized strainer. Set aside.

Put the cream, salt, and sugar in a stainless steel mixing bowl and whisk until soft peaks form. Fold the cream and the mango purée together. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
