STRAWBERRIES WITH CHANTILLY CREAM

Steps:

• Store strawberries in the refrigerator and buy them one day prior to making this dessert.
• Either the night before or immediately before serving, rinse the strawberries carefully so that any dirt will get washed away.
• Use a knife to cut off the green stem and leaves at the top of each strawberry.
• Chantilly cream is nothing but properly whipped cream.
• To whip cream properly, place the bowl in which you are going to whip the cream over a large tray of ice.
• Chill the whipping cream in the refrigerator before whipping it in a bowl until stiff peaks form.
• Add vanilla essence and powdered sugar slowly and continue to beat the cream.
• Serve the strawberries and cream in stemmed wine glasses or champagne saucers.
• Fill the glasses or saucers with strawberries and top off with sinfully good amounts of Chantilly cream.
• Enjoy!

ROASTED STRAWBERRIES AND MINT CHANTILLY CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. In an ovenproof skillet just large enough to hold the strawberries in one layer, melt the butter in the preheating oven, 2 to 3 minutes. Watch carefully so that the butter does not burn. Remove pan from oven and stir in 2 tablespoons of the sugar. The mixture will be grainy. Add the berries, tossing to coat with the butter and sugar. Spread in a single layer. Roast, stirring and turning once or twice, until the berries just begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Gently roll the roasted berries in the pan syrup to coat, then let them cool for about 5 minutes in the skillet.
• While the berries are roasting, whip the cream with the creme de menthe and remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar just until soft peaks form. Divide the chantilly cream among 4 shallow dessert bowls. Arrange the lukewarm berries in the chantilly cream, pointed ends up. Using a teaspoon, dribble the red pan glaze over the mint cream. Garnish with mint sprigs. Serve immediately.
