Indulge in the delightful combination of roasted balsamic strawberries and creamy mascarpone cheese, frozen into refreshing popsicles. This dessert offers a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors, making it a delightful treat for any occasion.
Ingredients: 1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and halved. 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar. 2 tbsp honey. 1 cup mascarpone cheese. 1/2 cup heavy cream. 1/4 cup powdered sugar. 1 tsp vanilla extract. Pinch of salt. Wooden popsicle sticks.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 375F 190C. In a bowl, mix strawberries, balsamic vinegar, and honey until evenly coated. Spread the strawberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender. In a separate bowl, whisk mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Let the roasted strawberries cool slightly. Insert wooden popsicle sticks into the center of each strawberry half. Fill popsicle molds halfway with the mascarpone cream mixture. Place a roasted strawberry half on top of the cream mixture in each mold. Top off the molds with more mascarpone cream mixture, covering the strawberries completely. Freeze the pops for at least 4 hours or until firm. Once frozen, remove the pops from the molds and serve immediately.
