About this recipe

This frozen strawberry dessert with mascarpone combines a yogurt and fruit purée cream with crisp sponge fingers added just before serving. Preparing the mixture takes about 15 minutes, but allow around four hours in total: 3 hours and 30 minutes to freeze, plus 10–15 minutes for the dessert to soften slightly. Use freezer-safe dessert cups. Add the reserved strawberries, almonds, sponge fingers and mint at the end to preserve their texture.

Ingredients

Servings
Base: 4

Cream

  • 250 g mascarpone

  • 250 g thick plain yogurt

  • 40 g powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit and layers

  • 400 g strawberries

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 8 sponge cookies

  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds

For finishing

  • 8 mint leaves

Steps

  1. Wash and hull the strawberries. Set aside about 100 g for garnish, cover, and refrigerate. Blend the remaining strawberries with the lemon juice into a smooth puree.

  2. Mix the mascarpone, plain yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract briefly on low speed, just until smooth. Add the strawberry puree and fold with a spatula until evenly combined.

  3. Divide the mixture among four dessert glasses suitable for freezing, cover, and freeze for 3 hours and 30 minutes. Break the sponge cookies into large pieces and store them in an airtight container so they stay dry.

  4. Remove the desserts from the freezer 10–15 minutes before serving. Once the mixture has softened slightly around the edges, garnish with the reserved strawberries, crumbled sponge cookies, sliced almonds, and mint leaves.
