Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 80 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 5 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and remove the stems. Slice two-thirds of the strawberries into thin slices and set them aside. Dice the remaining strawberries and toss them with lemon juice to enhance their flavor.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand or stand mixer to beat the mixture on medium speed until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip.
Crush the digestive biscuits (or graham crackers) into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Melt the unsalted butter and mix it thoroughly into the biscuit crumbs to form a sandy, cohesive texture. Set aside.
In serving glasses or bowls, begin assembling the dessert by adding a thin layer of the biscuit crumb mixture at the bottom.
Follow the crumb layer with a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture, spreading it evenly. Next, add a layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, ensuring the top layer is mascarpone cream.
Sprinkle a light dusting of the leftover biscuit crumbs over the top for a decorative touch. Add the diced strawberries on top for color and flavor.
Garnish with a mint leaf if desired, and refrigerate the Strawberry Mystre for at least 1 hour to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld.
Serve chilled and enjoy this luscious, fruity dessert!
