Low
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • For the buttermilk, mix the lemon juice with the milk and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • For the cake, in a bowl, beat the butter with the sugar until combined, add the eggs one by one, the egg whites, and the vanilla essence.
  • Gradually add the powders alternating with the buttermilk and beat until you have a smooth mixture.
  • Pour into a greased baking dish and bake for 25 minutes. Cool.
  • Using a 15 cm diameter ring, cut the cake to obtain two discs. Set aside.
  • For the strawberry mousse, in a mixer, cream the cream cheese and add the whipping cream, beat until doubled in volume and set aside.
  • In a food processor, add the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice and process until a puree is obtained. Add the gelatin in a thin stream.
  • Add the strawberry puree to the cream cheese mixture and gently fold. Reserve ¼ cup to stick the ladyfingers.
  • For assembly, place a disc of the cake in the ring, add halved strawberries and half of the strawberry mousse. Level with a spatula and refrigerate until set. Repeat with the other cake, strawberries, and the rest of the mousse. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until completely set and unmold.
  • Spread a little of the reserved mixture on the ladyfingers and stick them around the charlotte. Decorate with strawberry slices. Enjoy.
