Place the cream, sugar and vanilla extract into a large bowl and whisk until soft peak stage. You want the cream to hold its shape, but for the very tip of your peak to fall over.
Chop your 3oz of chocolate very finely and add to the cream mixture. Shave your extra chocolate into a small bowl and leave to one side. I use a vegetable peeler to shave pieces of chocolate!
Place strawberries and icing sugar into a blender and blitz until smooth. Mixture will be fairly runny, but this is fine; the way it marbles and mixes with the cream really makes these fools divine!
Take 4 individual sized bowls and place a dollop of cream in the bottom. Then spoon some strawberry puree over the top. Sprinkle some flakes of white chocolate on top of the puree, then repeat the layers; cream, strawberry puree, white chocolate flakes until each bowl is full.
I finished my Strawberry and White Chocolate Fools off with the strawberry puree, white chocolate flakes and two whole strawberries. You can either serve immediately, or cover and place in the fridge before serving.
This recipe is easily doubled and can be made a day ahead. Just make sure to cover them properly and keep in the fridge.
