Mixed Berry and Greek Yogurt "Fool" | Geoffrey Zakarian
Geoffrey Zakarian's take on a "fool" (an English dessert) is a great way to use up dried out or left over cake—just layer with berries, whipped cream + Greek yogurt.
MORE TO MAKE:
Peanut-Butter-and-Jelly Overnight Oats
Berries and Cream Parfait
Peach Pudding Cups
- A few cups of leftover yellow or vanilla cake, roughly cubed
- 3 cups mixed berries (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries), plus some for garnish
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup toasted coconut
Combine the sugar and berries in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until syrupy and thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Cool completely.
Place the cream in a stand mixer and whip to soft peaks. Fold in the yogurt.
Divide the cream between three rocks glasses, placing a small amount at the bottom. Layer with cake, fresh berries, berry compote and more cream. Finish with toasted coconut.
