Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes, plus 12–24 hours’ chilling time

Ingredients

500 g Woolworths Florida Pearl® strawberries, plus extra, sliced, to decorate
3 T castor sugar
1 T lemon, juiced
1 cup Woolworths hibiscus petal tea
16 Boudoir biscuits
400 g Woolworths mascarpone
4 T Woolworths strawberry jam with extra fruit
4 T icing sugar, plus extra for dusting
Woolworths freeze-dried strawberries, to decorate
handful raw shelled pistachios, chopped, to decorate

Method

1. Cube the strawberries, then place into a bowl. Sprinkle with the caster sugar and lemon juice and allow to stand for 2 hours.

2. Strain the strawberries, reserving the liquid. Mix the strained strawberry juice with the cooled tea.

3. Dip some of the Boudoir biscuits into the strawberry-tea mixture and place into a serving dish.

4. Beat the mascarpone, strawberry jam, and icing sugar until smooth. Spoon ⅓ of the mascarpone mixture over the dipped biscuits, then add some strawberries. Repeat this process twice more.
