Strawberry Rhubarb Fool
Dessert “fools” are fresh fruit purees folded into softly whipped cream. In this one, the strawberries are simply pureed, but the rhubarb is cooked with sugar and then pureed.

- 3 cups fresh rhubarb, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup water

- 2 tablespoons sugar
- Strawberry halves, if desired
