If you've never had a dessert with strawberries and balsamic, it's going to change your world. The intense, fruity flavor of the vinegar is a beautiful complement to the sweet berries.

  under 30 minutes

ingredients

16 ounces fresh strawberries, hulled and cut into quarters
4 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
fresh mint leaves

directions

Combine the strawberries, sugar, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.

Whisk together the mascarpone, heavy cream, and sugar by hand for 2 minutes (do not use an electric mixer or it may become over mixed). When the mascarpone mixture forms thick, soft peaks, stir in the lemon zest.

Divide the strawberries between individual dessert bowls. Top with the mascarpone mixture and garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
