Description

There's no easier dessert than fresh fruit. But for something a little more spirited, we topped it with some store-bought lemon curd lightened with yogurt and flavored with crème de cassis. This simple dessert is a snap to prepare.

Ingredients

1/2 cup purchased lemon curd
2 tablespoons crème de cassis (black currant-flavored liqueur)
1/2 cup plain yogurt, crème fraîche or sour cream (not low-fat or nonfat)
3 oranges, peel and white pith removed, fruit sliced, slices quartered
1 1-pint basket strawberries, hulled, halved
Fresh mint sprigs

Directions

  1. Whisk lemon curd and crème de cassis in small bowl to blend. Stir in yogurt. (Sauce can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  2. Combine oranges and strawberries in medium bowl. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover fruit and refrigerate.) Spoon fruit into balloon glasses. Spoon lemon curd sauce over. Garnish with mint sprigs and serve.
