It’s been so hot here that I am reposting a creamy treat from a couple of years ago. Simple to make, tasty to eat and oh so cool going down!

This dish is actually called a Fool. Yeah, yeah, snigger childishly all you like, then Google the name! The dish dates back to the 16th century when stewed or macerated fruit, (generally gooseberries) was mixed with custard. Lovely though custard is, nowadays heavy whipped cream is used. This makes for a quick to make dish that looks and tastes delish. It’s almost a crime that it’s good for you. Another guilt free desert for Primal eaters!

Yummy home-baked muffins, not a lot more to say is there really? I found the inspiration for this recipe at Cook Eat Paleo. Lisa’s versions are totally paleo and dairy-free. Me, well I like my paleo with cream, and go for the dairy mostly every time.

So here you go, get to it, they only take 5 minutes to mix up and pretty soon you will a tasty muffin or 6. They are perfect to eat as they are or cut them in half and add a pat of butter, load up with whipped cream or for a richer decadent taste, try a good spoonful of mascarpone cream instead.
