Ingredients:

Serving

1 pint fresh blueberries, lightly rinsed, patted dry
1 pint fresh blackberries, lightly rinsed, patted dry
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped
1 cup fresh blueberries, lightly rinsed, patted dry
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup fresh blueberries, lightly rinsed, patted dry (yes, another cup!)
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup creme fraiche

Directions:

FOR THE SALAD: In a large, nonreactive bowl, combine blueberries, blackberries, lemon juice & sugar, then set aside for 2 hours at room temperature for juices to develop.
Shortly before serving, toss berry mixture with chopped mint.
FOR THE FOOL: While salad is developing the juices, in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, cook 1 cup of blueberries & 1/4 cup sugar for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved & berries have softened.
Remove from heat & transfer berries to a medium bowl to cool completely. (To speed the process, chill berries in the frig for about 20 minutes or about 5 minutes in the freezer.).
Add remaining cup of blueberries to the cooled blueberries & set aside.
While the berries are cooling, in a large mixing bowl & with a hand mixer, whip together the cream, the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar & the vanilla to form soft peaks.
Add creme fraiche & continue beating until it is combined & soft peaks are again formed.
With a rubber spatula, GENTLY fold the blueberries into the whipped mixture & creating a marblized effect ~ DO NOT OVERMIX!
Refrigerate, loosely covered for not more than 2 hours before serving.
When ready to serve, spoon 1/2 cup of fruit salad into each of 6 dessert bowls & top with a generous portion of the fool.
