Yogurt adds a healthy component to this fool, an old-fashioned dessert. A squeeze of lime, a crunchy sprinkling of pistachios, and a smooth swirl of honey all contribute to the luxurious feel of this dessert.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pints blueberries
1/3 cup honey, plus more if desired
Juice of half a lime
5 fresh mint leaves plus 4 sprigs for garnish
1/2 cup cold heavy cream
1 cup thick Greek-style yogurt
4 teaspoons finely chopped pistachios

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine 1 pint of blueberries, honey, lime juice, and 5 mint leaves; puree. Press mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove skin and seeds. Discard skin and seeds. Taste and add more honey if desired. Transfer to a container, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until cold, about 10 minutes.
  • With an electric mixer or a whisk, whip the cream until it holds stiff peaks. Fold the cream into the yogurt.
  • Using a light hand, fold the blueberry puree into the yogurt mixture about three quarters of the way, leaving a swirly pattern of dark purple streaks through the white yogurt mixture.
  • Spoon into 4 glasses and chill. To serve, sprinkle with pistachios, and garnish with remaining blueberries and mint sprigs.
