Blueberry Fool Recipe 

Start with prepping blueberry purée. Simmer blueberries and sugar in a pan. A touch of lemon zest and lemon juice make it super delicious. Wait until sugar dissolves and blueberries soften. I like to keep the shape of the blueberries, so make sure you remove it from heat before blueberries turn mushy.

Next, beat together cream and sugar. When you get those beautiful soft peaks, add cooked blueberry mixture and give it a stir to get a ripple effect. 

Finally, transfer this to cups and serve with blueberries and mint leaves. So good!
