This fruit dessert is about as simple as they come. (The minimalist wannabe in me loves it. 😀) With fresh fruit and three other ingredients this dessert is a cool and refreshing treat during these warmer months. We have already enjoyed this whipped strawberry dessert a few times this summer…it’s hard to resist with the delicious strawberries right now. You could also change this dessert up and use other seasonal berries such as raspberries or blueberries. Give it a try and be surprised how delicious a “back-to-basic” dessert can be.
