Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh strawberries
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 250 ml Heavy whipping cream
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Digestive biscuits or graham crackers
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Rinse and hull the fresh strawberries. Set aside 100 grams of the prettiest ones for garnish, and chop the remaining strawberries into small pieces.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mix the chopped strawberries with granulated sugar. Let it sit for 10 minutes to macerate, releasing the natural juices.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until needed.
Step 4
Crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and rolling with a rolling pin.
Step 5
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave in a heatproof bowl. Mix the melted butter with the biscuit crumbs until evenly coated.
Step 6
Toast the biscuit mixture over medium heat in a dry non-stick pan for 4–5 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and cool completely.
Step 7
In serving glasses or a large trifle dish, assemble the layers. Start with a layer of the toasted biscuit crumble, followed by a layer of macerated strawberries, and then a layer of whipped cream. Repeat the layers until the glass or dish is full, ending with a layer of whipped cream on top.
Step 8
Slice the reserved fresh strawberries and arrange them decoratively on top of the final whipped cream layer.
Step 9
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 10
Serve the Blushing Strawberry Family Delight chilled and enjoy!
