Let’s build this elegant White Chocolate-Strawberry Tiramisu:

1. Whip the Cream:

In a large bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Set aside (ideally, keep it chilled).

2. Beat the Cheeses and Sugar:

In another large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and softened mascarpone cheese together until light and completely smooth (no lumps!).

Beat in the cooled, melted white baking chocolate, the 1 cup confectioners’ sugar, and the vanilla extract until well combined and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

3. Fold in Whipped Cream:

Gently fold the previously whipped cream (from step 1) into the cheese/white chocolate mixture, doing it in about two or three additions. Use a rubber spatula and gentle folding motions (scooping from bottom up) to incorporate the cream without deflating it too much. The final mixture should be light and airy.

4. Prepare Ladyfingers and First Layer:

Pour the orange juice into a shallow bowl.

Briefly dip half of the ladyfingers (split halves, cut side down potentially, or just quickly dipped) into the orange juice, allowing excess juice to drip off. Do not soak them, just a quick dip.

Arrange the dipped ladyfingers in a single layer on the bottom of a 13×9-inch dish.

5. Add First Filling and Berry Layer:

Spread half of the mascarpone-cream cheese mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.

Top with half of the sliced fresh strawberries, arranging them in an even layer.

6. Add Second Ladyfinger Layer:

Dip the remaining half of the ladyfingers in the remaining orange juice.

Arrange them in a single layer over the strawberries.

7. Add Remaining Filling and Berries:

Gently stir the remaining ½ cup confectioners’ sugar into the remaining cream cheese mixture. (Self-correction: Following original directions again – all sugar was added in step 2. This step seems incorrect based on ingredient list & initial mixing. I will OMIT adding more sugar here). Fold in the remaining whipped cream. (Self-correction 2: All whipped cream was folded in step 3. This step seems misplaced). Okay, revising based on logical flow:

Corrected Step 7: Spread the remaining mascarpone-cream cheese mixture (which already has all the whipped cream folded in) evenly over the second layer of ladyfingers.

Top with the remaining half of the sliced fresh strawberries.

8. Chill Thoroughly:

Carefully cover the dish with plastic wrap.

Refrigerate until the tiramisu is well-chilled and set, at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the ladyfingers to soften and the flavors to meld.

9. Serve:

Just before serving, if desired, drizzle the top with chocolate syrup.

Cut into squares or slices and serve chilled. Enjoy this elegant dessert
