Peaches, Strawberries, and Cream
Ingredients: 
2 Peaches, washed
8 Strawberries, cold
1 tsp Granulated Sugar
1 tsp ground Cloves
2 Cups Heavy Cream
1 tsp Confectioners Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Water for Boiling
Directions:
- Place the Peaches in a Pot, and fill with water enough that they float. Remove the Peaches and set them aside.
- Bring the water to a boil.
- Using tongs, drop the peaches into the water, and roll them around for about a minute.
- Remove the Peaches with tongs, and run them under cold water.
- The skin of the Peach should easily peal at this point, so peal them, and then chop them into bite-size chunks and place in a large bowl or in serving dishes.
- Slice the Strawberries in quarters and mix with the Peaches.
- Sprinkle the Strawberries and Peaches with the Granulated Sugar and Cloves, and refrigerate.
- In a separate bowl, whip together the Heavy Cream, Confectioners Sugar, and Vanilla until stiff peeks form.
- Remove the fruit, and cover with the whipped cream and serve.
Makes 4 servings.
NOTES: This is a very simple summer desert, that is set off by the addition of cloves. If you are not going to serve right away, hold off on making the whipped cream until before serving.
Variations:
Ṽ›Ɣ - Use a Non-Dairy Whipped Topping instead of making your own Whipped Cream.
S›Ƨ - Substitute Splenda® for the Sugar on the Fruit, and omit it from the Whipped Cream–there will not be a noticeable difference with the Whipped Cream.
