Chef Chuck's Strawberries and Chocolate Mascarpone Cream

Fragole

Summer is near and the strawberries are a wonderful sign of the season. Sliced organic strawberries, sweetened with reduced balsamic vinegar and chocolate mascarpone cream, what a refreshing dessert.


Strawberries and Mascarpone Cream
1 pound fresh organic strawberries

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
8 ounces mascarpone cheese

1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa

3/4 cup whipping cream

2 tablespoons powdered sugar


In a small pot on medium heat reduce balsamic vinegar to a 1/4 cup, this takes about 10 minutes. Meanwhile prepare cream in a mixer, beat whipping cream with sugar till firm peaks form. In another bowl whip the mascarpone cheese till soft add cocoa, then fold in whipped cream. Layer in a glass, cream, strawberries and a drizzle of balsamic. If balsamic thickens too much, reheat.
