How to Make Strawberry And Orange Fool

  1. Chop 1 pound of fresh strawberries into roughly 1/2-inch pieces.
  2. Mash the chopped strawberries coarsely with a fork. Leave some larger pieces for texture.
  3. Place the mashed strawberries in a fine-mesh colander and let drain for 15 minutes to remove excess liquid.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 2 cups of heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and the zest of 1 orange.
  6. If desired, gently fold in 1 tablespoon of Cointreau or other orange liqueur.
  7. Gently fold in the drained strawberries.
  8. Divide the mixture evenly among 4 wine glasses or dessert coupes.
  9. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  10. Garnish each fool with additional halved strawberries before serving.
