Fresh Apricots and Strawberries with Sour Cream and Brown Sugar

Diane's Recipes

Serves 6

Here's a quick dessert idea that lets summer produce shine. Picture big, juicy red strawberries and velvety apricot quarters on a platter surrounded by small pots of brown sugar and sour cream for dipping. A plate of biscotti are perfect with the fruit. Serve with a cooling glass of late harvest Riesling.

12 ripe but firm medium apricots
1 pint large strawberries, cleaned but not hulled
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup sour cream or Crème Fraîche

Garnish
Fresh mint sprigs

Cut the apricots in quarters, removing the pits. On the outer edge of a serving platter, arrange the apricot quarters alternating with whole strawberries. In the center, place bowls of brown sugar and sour cream. Garnish with mint sprigs and serve immediately.
