Ingredients

• 200 g low-fat quark
• 150 g plain yogurt (3.5 % fat)
• 50 g sugar or honey
• 1 packet vanilla sugar (approx. 8 g)
• 150 ml heavy cream
• 150 g butter biscuits
• 80 ml milk
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 pinch of salt
• Fresh berries or fruit of your choice (e.g. 150 g strawberries, raspberries or peach pieces)
• 1 tbsp chopped nuts or chocolate shavings (optional)

Instructions

1. Place the butter biscuits in a freezer bag and crush them into coarse crumbs with a rolling pin or a heavy object.
2. Pour the milk into a small bowl and stir in the biscuit crumbs until they are lightly moistened but not soggy. Set aside.
3. In a tall bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer until stiff and refrigerate.
4. Put the quark, yogurt, sugar, vanilla sugar, lemon juice and a pinch of salt into a mixing bowl and beat with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy.
5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the quark mixture with a spatula or spoon until evenly combined.
6. Wash and trim the fruit and, depending on the type, cut into bite-sized pieces.
7. Prepare glasses or small dessert bowls. First place a layer of butter biscuit crumbs on the bottom and press down lightly.
8. Spread a layer of quark cream on top, then add some fruit. Repeat the layers as desired until all ingredients are used up. Finish with a layer of quark cream.
9. Garnish with any remaining fruit pieces, chopped nuts or chocolate shavings, as desired.
10. Refrigerate the desserts for at least 30 minutes to allow the biscuits to soften slightly and the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.

Tip

For extra flavor, briefly toast the butter biscuits in a dry pan before crushing them, or replace them with cocoa biscuits. If you prefer it less sweet, you can reduce the sugar and instead use more fresh fruit.
