Marty L. Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Steep the leaves in heavy cream for a few hours or overnight. Strain, add a bit of sugar if to your taste, whip the cream, serve a dollop or three with any summer fruit on hand (strawberries, raspberries, peaches, and apricots work particularly well), or any fruit pie. The infused whipped cream also works marvelously in strawberry shortcake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
