Prep Time15 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Course: Dessert, sweet
Cuisine: Italian
Servings: 2 people

Ingredients

  • 250 g Strawberries 8.8 oz
  • 100 ml Double Cream 3.7oz
  • 110 g Marscapone 3.7oz
  • 25 g Granulated Sugar 1 oz
  • 1 packet Savoiardi biscuits Ladyfingers

Instructions

  • Mash the strawberries with a fork.  Reserve 3 or 4, depending on their size, for decorating the top.
  • Whisk the cream, marscapone and sugar together until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.

To Assemble the Strawberries and Cream Dessert:

  • Start with a putting a layer of the cream mixture on the bottom of your container, then a single layer of savoiardi biscuits dipped in the strawberries, then mashed strawberries.  Continue layering the ingredients this way until the container is full, or you run out of ingredients. You can break the biscuits in half or quarters if they don't fit well. Nobody will be able to tell in the end that they are broken! Finish with a layer of cream mixture.  Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for at least one hour so that the biscuits can soak up the strawberry juice.
  • Before serving, slice the leftover strawberries and decorate the top.
