Make it with blackberries

Line the bottom of a dish with ready-made sponges. Crush 200g blackberries with 2 tbsp icing sugar and spread on top. Spoon the lemon curd and yogurt mixture over the top, then scatter with toasted almonds.

Tip

Use raspberries at room temperature when their full flavour is at its best.

'The crunchy shortbread contrasted well with the lemony yogurt and raspberries in the Lemon curd & yogurt fool, and was really good for dipping. This would make a great emergency dessert.'

    This was delicious. I added 6 crushed meringues to the yogurt/curd mixture to make it more like a Mess than a Fool (LOL). I also cut back on the sugar on the raspberries as a result. I added a squirt of whipped cream to the top of the raspberries, and I served it alongside lemon/almond thimble cookies. It was a hot summer night (27 degrees) when our guests ate this. What raves it got for lightness and coolness. I told them it was easy, but they didn't believe me!

    For such an easy dessert and using Tesco's finest lemon curd as i could not find the recommended one, my guests could only use superlatives to describe it - fantastic, wonderfull, marvourless - can I have the recipe. Thank you very much.
