Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons Confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Strong decaffeinated roasted barley tea (or any coffee substitute)
- 20 pieces Ladyfinger cookies (sugar-free or light if available)
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries or raspberries (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the low-fat cream cheese, non-fat Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and confectioners' sugar. Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and fluffy. Set aside.
In a shallow dish, mix the decaffeinated roasted barley tea with the almond milk. This will serve as your dipping liquid for the ladyfinger cookies.
Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish. Dip each ladyfinger cookie quickly into the barley tea and almond milk mixture, ensuring it absorbs some liquid but does not become soggy.
Arrange half of the dipped ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of the baking dish.
Spread half of the cream cheese and yogurt mixture over the ladyfingers in the baking dish, using a spatula to create an even layer.
Lightly dust half of the unsweetened cocoa powder over the cream layer using a fine-mesh sieve or sifter.
Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers, the remaining cream cheese and yogurt mixture, and a final dusting of cocoa powder.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together and the dessert to firm up.
Before serving, garnish with fresh strawberries or raspberries, if desired. Slice into 8 equal portions and enjoy!
