Summer Abundance Fruit Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 large peaches or 2 large nectarines
    2 large plums or 3 small plums
    1 pint blueberries
    1 pint raspberries
    2 cups seedless grapes
    1/3 cup fresh mint leaves (about 1/3 c packed, 1 small handful)
    4 tablespoons sugar, divided
    1 cup heavy cream
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Preparation
    Dice peach and plums into 1/2-inch size (approx. 1 cm).
    Slice grapes in half lengthwise.
    Finely mince the mint leaves.
    Mix all the fruit and the mint leaves in a bowl with 3 Tbsp of sugar. Cover and set aside in refrigerator for at least an hour.
    Just prior to serving, mix remaining 1 tbsp sugar and vanilla with the heavy cream, and whip until it holds soft peaks.
    Mix the fruit thoroughly one more time, some of the raspberries will have macerated to juice, and that is deliciously fine!
    Serve fruit in bowls or glasses (or paper cups if you want to).
    Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream.
