Ingredients
Ladyfingers, 8-10 (use gluten-free if needed)
Heavy cream, 1 cup (preferably full-fat)
Strawberries, 4 cups (halved)
Sugar, 1/4 cup
Lemon zest, 1 tsp (or orange zest as a variation)
Instructions
Prepare the Base: Lightly crush 4 ladyfingers and evenly press them into 4 serving cups to form the base.
Chill the Biscuit Layer: Refrigerate the cups for 5 minutes to prevent over-saturation.
Whip the Cream Mixture: Beat heavy cream with sugar and 1 tbsp strawberry compote until glossy peaks form.
Assemble the Layers: Spread half the cream mixture over each base, then arrange 3 tbsp halved strawberries on top.
Add Finish Touches: Press remaining ladyfingers into a sugar-lemon glaze, then crown the dessert. Chill for 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
Replace ladyfingers with halal alternatives if needed.
Adjust sugar quantity based on strawberry sweetness.
Presentation in individual cups enhances visual appeal.
