This strawberries and creamy mint dessert is a great healthy alternative to heavy cakes and pies. The combination of berries and mint is a classic you can’t go wrong with. This dessert is light as a feather and still full of flavor.

Cooking Instructions
1.
In a medium saucepan, put Granulated Sugar (1/2 cup), Fresh Mint Leaves (1 1/2 cups), and Water (1 cup) and bring to a boil. Reduce the water and mint mixture to a glaze consistency, about 3-4 minutes.
2.
Remove from heat and steep for 5-10 minutes.
3.
After it has steeped, strain the mixture and discard the solids. Let it cool down to room temperature.
4.
While the syrup cools, in a large bowl, whip the Heavy Cream (1 1/2 cups) until it reaches stiff peaks. You can check this by the cream standing straight up when you turn the whisk facing up.
5.
Gently fold in 1/4 cup syrup, being careful not to break the stiff peaks. If needed, re-whip the cream to stiff peaks.
6.
Spoon with the Fresh Strawberries (3 cups) and alternate between layers of strawberries and cream. Garnish with extra mint leaves on top.
