Ingredients

4 egg yolks large
½ cup granulated sugar
16 ounces mascarpone cheese
1 cup heavy whipping cream
16 ounces strawberries hulled (I used thawed frozen sliced strawberries with their juice)
⅓ cup powdered sugar
24 Savoiardi ladyfingers
1 tablespoon freeze-dried strawberries ground (optional garnish)

Instructions

Place the egg yolks and sugar in a large metal mixing bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
Cook, whisking, until the mixture is pale, thick, and doubled in volume (about 5 minutes).
Remove from the heat, and whisk in the mascarpone.
Set aside and allow the mascarpone mixture to cool.
Whip the cream until it holds stiff peaks.
Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
Set the filling aside.
Puree the strawberries and powdered sugar together until smooth.
In the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan, arrange half the ladyfingers (in two rows of 6) .
Drizzle half the strawberry puree over the ladyfingers.
Spread half the mascarpone filling over the ladyfingers, then repeat: ladyfingers, strawberry puree, and mascarpone filling.
Garnish with ground freeze-dried strawberries, if desired.
Chill (covered) overnight in the refrigerator.
