    Ingredients

    • 6 c. nonfat plain yogurt
    • 2/3 c. fresh lemon juice
    • 1 1/3 c. sugar
    • 8 ounce reduced-fat cream cheese softened
    • 2 Tbsp. additional lemon juice
    • 4 tsp freshly grated lemon zest
    • 4 tsp vanilla extract
    • 4 pt fresh strawberries hulled and thinly sliced
    • 6 ounce packaged ladyfingers fresh mint sprigs or possibly other herb for garnish

    Directions

    1. Set a fine-mesh sieve or possibly colander over a bowl. Line with a double layer of cheesecloth or possibly a coffee filter. Spoon in yogurt. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 8 hrs or possibly overnight. Throw away whey or possibly reserve for another use. (The yogurt cheese will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.)
    2. In a small saucepan, combine 1/3 c. lemon juice and half the sugar. Stir over medium heat till sugar dissolves, about 3 min. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside to cold.
    3. In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt cheese, cream cheese, remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla and remaining 1/3 c. sugar. Beat with a whisk or possibly electric mixer till fluffy and smooth.
    4. In a small bowl, toss strawberries with 2 Tbsp. of the lemon syrup.
    5. To assemble, divide half of the yogurt mix among 6 dessert dishes. Arrange half the ladyfingers over the yogurt mix and lightly brush with half the remaining lemon syrup. Top with half the strawberries. Repeat with remaining yogurt mix, ladyfingers, lemon syrup and strawberries. Garnish with mint sprigs.
