Blackberry Fool
Happy April Fools Day! No, this isn’t a goofy gag or a silly prank! This pretty little treat is actually called a fool. A fool is an British dessert generally made by mixing pureed fruit, whipped cream and sugar.
Originally the most common fruit ingredient in fools was gooseberries, but I opted for blackberries. To make this easy {yet very pretty} dessert you simply puree your fruit and swirl it through the whipped cream.
