Strawberries macerated in red wine make a decidedly grown-up dessert. The recipe requires minimal effort, just a little foresight. Make the mascarpone cream shortly before you’d like to serve it.

Time: Preparation 4 hours

Serving: 6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb strawberries
  • 1 c red wine
  • 0.25 c sugar
  • 0.75 c heavy cream
  • 0.5 c mascarpone
  • 2 vanilla beans
  • 3 T powdered sugar

Preparation

Depending on their size, halve or quarter the strawberries and place in a large bowl. Pour the wine over the strawberries, then sprinkle with sugar. Fold to combine. Refrigerate, covered, for at least 4 hours.

Combine the cream, mascarpone, vanilla seeds, and powdered sugar in a large bowl. Whisk until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Spoon a generous amount of mascarpone cream into dessert bowls, then top with strawberries and the wine sauce that has accumulated. Enjoy!
