Grand Marnier-Marinated Strawberries Recipe from Hostess with the Mostess
Talented, successful blogger Hostess with the Mostess (HWTM) added living a LuSHHus life to her blogroll this week, and I am so excited and grateful! To commemorate, I thought I’d share a fantastic-looking recipe I found at HWTM.
Ingredients:
- 2 pints strawberries, hulled
- ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon superfine sugar, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried lavender buds
Directions:
Slice the strawberries in half lengthwise and place them in a glass bowl. Pour ¼ cup of the Grand Marnier over the berries, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
When ready to serve, stir the berries and Grand Marnier. Place the cream and 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until the cream begins to thicken. Drizzle in the remaining 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier and continue to whip until stiff but smooth peaks from, adding more sugar if you prefer a sweeter cream. Spoon a dollop of the cream on top of the berry bowl and dot the cream with the lavender buds. Place the rest of the whipped cream in a small serving bowl. Serve the berries and the cream immediately.
Enjoy!
