Tap a step when it is done.

Wash the strawberries, remove the stems and chop them.
If desired, mix 1 tbsp sugar with the chopped strawberries and let sit for 10 minutes to release juice.
Whip the very cold cream with the powdered sugar until firm.
Gently soften the mascarpone in a bowl and fold in the whipped cream with upward motions until combined.
Quickly dip the ladyfingers in milk or orange juice without soaking them.
Place a layer of dipped ladyfingers in the bottom of each cup, then add a layer of cream and a layer of strawberries.
