I'm sure no one needs me to say that this is a classic combination, and for good reason. You can, of course, simply fill a bowl with whole or sliced strawberries and top with a big glob of whipped cream. But if you're looking to dress it up a little, here are two options. In both cases, you can use the strawberries straight, or else toss them with a little sugar ahead of time to pull out some of the juice. You can also whip straight cream or else add a little confectioner's sugar and/or vanilla extract. Or, for something more sophisticated and unusual, add some almond extract.
1. Use large wineglasses and make alternating layers of sliced strawberries and whipped cream. Top each glass with a whole berry with the stem still on.
2. Make a "fool" by mashing some berries into the whipped cream, then folding in some whole berries as well. It will be a lovely pink.
