* You can add any of your favorite berries in the portions you love, the recipe is very flexible.

Directions:

1. Place the strawberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan. Mix well and place over medium heat until the water starts to boil and the sugar has dissolved. Mash the strawberries in the saucepan with a potato masher or a fork to release it's juice.

2. When the strawberry is tender, strain the juice of the strawberry in a strainer into a bowl and place the strawberry juice on the side until it cools a bit.

3. Place heavy whipped cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl and whip using a stand mixer or an electric hand mixer until soft peaks.

4. Then add the mascarpone cream and whip for 2 min. or until thick/ stiff peaks. Place aside.

5. Prepare, wash, and dry your fruit and get ready to assemble.

6. In a small deep dish or pyrex, dip a lady finger in the strawberry juice generously and place in the deep dish.

7. You can also place the lady fingers in the dish a pour half of the juice. But make sure you get all sides. (Note: strawberry juice isn't like coffee so you have to be generous when you dip)

8. Place a layer or your cream on top of the strawberry lady fingers in the deep dish, then top with a layer of fruit.

9. Place another layer of strawberry juice dipped lady fingers, then cream, then top with fruit and decorate.

10. Allow at least 6 hours for lady finger to moisten or it's even better overnight. Make sure you cover well if you will eat it the next day. Enjoy!
