I made this for dinner tonight and it was so easy to make. We had a large family meal so doubled up the recipe, which was so simple. Everyone loved it and were looking for second helpings 🙂 The recipe is very straightforward and it doesn’t really need any prep beforehand, it can all be done as you need it. The addition of the greek yoghurt and whipping cream resulted in a really light dessert, which suited the tastes of both young kids and grown ups. Will definitely be making this again!
This is a lovely dessert and perfect if you want something quick and easy. I made it for when we had friends over to dinner and had pre cut the strawberries and made the puree before they came so it only took a few minutes to throw together 🙂 Great dessert for relaxed entertaining!
