Step 1

Put the gooseberries in a pan with the mint, sugar and elderflower. Stir over a low heat for 5-8 mins until the gooseberries start to soften and turn syrupy. Leave to cool. Fish out the mint sprigs and discard. Taste and add more sugar, if you like.

Step 2

Whip together the cream, yogurt and icing sugar to soft peaks. Fold through most of the gooseberries, then divide between glasses. Spoon over the remaining gooseberries, scatter over some mint and serve with shortbread.
