Directions
Balsamic Strawberries With Whipped Mascarpone Cheese,My neighbor brought this over one evening for my husband and I to sample. We just happened to be entertaining some guests, and hadn’t planned a dessert. When the meal ended, I brought out the two portions and divided it carefully amongst the group. We practically licked our bowls clean, this was so wonderful. He had pulled the recipe from epicurious. Makes a beautiful presentation, very simple, very good. just be certain to use a good-quality balsamic.,I made this for a Valentine’s dessert and we’ll be having it regularly! I reduced the Balsamic glaze longer, probably 4 to 5 minutes. I quartered the berries because hubby doesn’t like big pieces of fruit. I spread the Mascarpone/Whipped Cream mixture onto Angel Food cake and then put the strawberries with the Balsamic glaze over that. I topped everything with whipped cream which was probably overkill but still was yummy since this dessert isn’t overly sweet. We both thought this was one of the best desserts ever. Thanks for sharing it!
