TWD - Lady Fingers




This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Lady Fingers, also known as savoiardi or sponge fingers.  I have made them once before with The Daring Bakers.  We have also made this batter before to make Dorie’s Strawberry Shortcakes.

I didn’t have any trouble making these lady fingers. I made a half batch only, and used them to make Donal Skehan’s Blackberry Amber, an Irish dessert with layers of sweetened blackberries, lady fingers soaked in egg and milk, and meringue:



To see what everyone else made this week and what they thought of it, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.

Dear Gaye, I really like ladyfingers but I equally like the fact that you incorporated them into this lovely Irish dessert - what a treat!
