Description

A light and creamy dessert featuring sweet-tart raspberry and rhubarb compote folded into fluffy whipped cream for an easy and elegant treat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup rhubarb, chopped
  • 1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the rhubarb, raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is soft and the mixture has thickened, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and let the compote cool completely.
  4. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the cooled raspberry-rhubarb compote into the whipped cream, swirling slightly to create a marbled effect.
  6. Spoon the fool into serving glasses or bowls.
  7. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  8. Garnish with extra raspberries or a sprig of mint, if desired.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, you can substitute part of the whipped cream with Greek yogurt.
  • Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your raspberries and rhubarb.
  • Best served the day it is made, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day.
