*I have NO idea why the font and spacing is so messed up on this post, but I can't seem to get it fixed. Sorry!
This is probably one of the best desserts I have had in a while. The original recipe is from Taste of Home magazine. However, mom and I made it a little different (by accident) and it actually turned out to be easier than the true recipe. I can't imagine making it the other way- it was pretty sweet the way it was and we left out some of the sugar. I'll post the original recipe first and then the way we made it.
Original Ingredients and Directions:
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
4 ounces Mascarpone cheese
9 ounces white baking chocolate, melted and cooled
1 cup confectioners' sugar, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 packages (3 ounces each) ladyfingers, split
2/3 cup orange juice
4 cups sliced fresh strawberries
Chocolate syrup, optional
In a large bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form; set aside. In another large bowl, beat cheeses until light and fluffy. Beat in the chocolate, 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Fold in 2 cups whipped cream.
Brush half of the ladyfingers with half of the orange juice; arrange in a 13-in. x 9-in. dish. Spread with 2 cups cream cheese mixture; top with 2 cups of berries. Brush remaining ladyfingers with remaining orange juice; arrange over berries.
In a large bowl, combine remaining cream cheese mixture and confectioners' sugar; fold in remaining whipped cream. Spread over ladyfingers. Top with remaining berries. Refrigerate until serving. Just before serving, drizzle with chocolate syrup if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.
