Instructions
To create your delicious Strawberry Lemon Delight, follow these steps:
1. Prepare Strawberries: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to create a syrupy mixture.
2. Whip Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
3. Mix Yogurt and Lemon Juice: In another bowl, combine Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, remaining sugar, lemon zest, and salt. Stir until well combined.
4. Fold Ingredients: Gently fold the whipped cream into the yogurt and lemon mixture until fully blended and creamy.
5. Layer the Dessert: In serving cups or a large dish, start by adding a layer of the whipped cream mixture, then add a layer of the sweetened strawberries. Repeat the layering until the ingredients are used up, ending with a cream layer on top.
6. Chill: Cover the dessert and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 30 minutes or longer if you prefer.
7. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, consider adding a few fresh strawberries or a sprinkle of lemon zest on top for a final touch.
