Ingredients

 

2 6-ounce packages white baking bars, cut up

1-1/2 cups whipping cream

1 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee

2 tablespoons brandy (optional)

1 3-ounce package cream cheese, softened

2-1/2 3-ounce packages ladyfingers (30), split

3 cups sliced fresh strawberries

2 cups halved fresh strawberries

 

Directions:

 

1. Chill a medium mixing bowl and beaters of an

electric mixer. In a medium saucepan combine baking

bars and 1/4 cup of the cream; heat and stir over low

heat until bars are melted. Cool slightly. Stir

together espresso or coffee and brandy, if desired.

2. For filling, in the chilled bowl beat remaining

whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium speed

until soft peaks form (tips curl); set aside. In a

large mixing bowl beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add

cooled white baking bar mixture to cream cheese; beat

on medium speed until smooth. Fold whipped cream into

cream cheese mixture. Set aside.

3. To assemble, line the sides of a 9-inch springform

pan with some of the ladyfinger halves, flat side in.

Arrange half of the remaining ladyfingers on the

bottom of the pan. Drizzle half of the espresso

mixture over ladyfingers in the bottom of the pan.

Spoon a third of the filling over ladyfingers. Top

with sliced strawberries. Top with remaining

ladyfingers. Drizzle with remaining espresso mixture.

Top with remaining filling. Cover and chill for 3 to 4

hours. Before serving, arrange halved berries atop

filling. Cut into wedges to serve. Makes 10 to 12
