Strawberry Tiramisu

This is a delightfully yummy alternative to traditional tiramisu.

1 quart fresh strawberries
1 1/4 cups cold milk (I use 2%)
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (I use lower fat), softened
4 tablespoons brewed coffee, room temperature,divided
2 cups whipped topping
1 (3 ounce) package ladyfingers, split
6 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate, grated (or use Toblerone!)

1. Set aside three strawberries for garnish; slice the remaining strawberries. In a bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth; gradually beat in 2 tablespoons coffee. Beat in pudding. Fold in whipped topping.
2. Brush remaining coffee over ladyfingers. Line the bottom of a 3-qt. trifle or glass serving bowl with half of the ladyfingers. Top with half of the sliced berries, grated chocolate and pudding mixture; repeat layers. Cut reserved berries in half; place on trifle. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
