So I've discovered a great secret: Putting whipped cream on anything turns it into an amazing dessert (girls, stop giggling).
The other night after work I wanted to make a nice dinner but was low on time and energy. So before I started cooking (ie boiling corn and throwing meat on the grill) I cut up some peaches and apricots, put them in a bowl with some sugar, and whipped some heavy cream I had left over from making a cream sauce. (I used a hand mixer to cut down on clean-up, but I usually just throw the cream and some sugar in a blender.) I stuck everything in the fridge, and after dinner I put the fruit in low glasses with a dollop of cream on top.
It was a fabulous (and impressive looking) dessert.
