Ingredients
Scale
- 24 to 28 crisp ladyfingers (savoiardi)
- 1 pound strawberries, hulled and sliced, plus extra for topping
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar for macerating berries
- 8 ounces mascarpone, room temperature
- 1 cup cold heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar for the cream, plus more to taste
- 2 ounces white chocolate, finely grated
- Soaking liquid of your choice, about 1 cup total
Instructions
- Macerate the berries: Toss sliced strawberries with sugar and lemon. Set aside 10 to 15 minutes, then drain the extra syrup.
- Make the cream: Beat mascarpone with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. In another bowl, whip the cold cream to medium peaks. Fold cream into mascarpone gently until fully blended and fluffy.
- Dip and layer: Quickly dip ladyfingers in your chosen liquid, one second per side. Line the bottom of the pan with a snug layer.
- Spread and sprinkle: Spoon half the cream over the ladyfingers, scatter half the strawberries, and sprinkle a third of the grated white chocolate.
- Repeat: Add a second dipped layer of ladyfingers, the rest of the cream, remaining strawberries, and more white chocolate on top.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- Finish: Add fresh strawberry slices and a final snowfall of white chocolate before serving.
Notes
This dessert gets better after a night in the fridge; fresh strawberry slices are best added right before serving.
