Strawberry Mascarpone Oreo Dessert

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 250 g mascarpone
• 350 g yogurt
• 8 Oreo cookies
• 400 g strawberries, frozen
• 4 tbsp water
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp strawberry syrup
• 5 mint leaves, fresh
• 2 tsp, leveled cornstarch
• n. B. Chocolate shavings or fresh mint for decoration

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Place the strawberries in a small saucepan with the water, lemon juice, strawberry syrup, and finely chopped mint leaves and thaw over low heat. Once the strawberries have thawed, either puree them or mash them with a pestle and mortar, depending on your preference. I prefer the latter, as this leaves small pieces. Pour about 2 tablespoons of the liquid into a small bowl and stir in the cornstarch. Add the stirred cornstarch to the strawberry puree and let it reduce slightly. Then remove the pan from the heat and let the strawberry mixture cool. Mix the mascarpone and yogurt well and divide between four glasses, reserving a little for a decorative dollop at the end. Crumble the Oreo cookies and fill the glasses as well. Finally, divide the strawberry mixture between the glasses and top with a teaspoon of mascarpone mixture. The dessert can then be decorated with grated chocolate or fresh mint leaves, if desired. Refrigerate the dessert until ready to serve.
