🛒 Ingredients



  • 300g plain tea biscuits (or digestive cookies)

  • 500g fresh ripe strawberries

  • 2 cups heavy cream (cold)

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup milk (for dipping cookies)

  • Optional: white chocolate shavings or crushed nuts for garnish



🧁 Preparation Method




  1. Prepare the strawberries

    Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries. Set aside a few for decoration.




  2. Make the cream mixture

    In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Keep it light and fluffy.




  3. Prepare the cookies

    Quickly dip each cookie into milk (don’t soak too long or they’ll fall apart).





🍰 Assembly (Formation)



  1. In a serving dish or tray, place a layer of dipped cookies.

  2. Spread a layer of whipped cream over the cookies.

  3. Add a layer of sliced strawberries.

  4. Repeat the layers (cookies → cream → strawberries) until ingredients are used.

  5. Finish with a final layer of cream and decorate with strawberries and optional toppings.



❄️ Chilling



  • Refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours (overnight is best).

  • This allows the cookies to soften and blend into a cake-like texture.
