Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup (10floz/282ml) heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup (8oz/225g) mascarpone cheese, room temperature (see substitute idea below)
- ⅓ cup (2½ oz/71g) sugar For the syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons creme de cassis (optional but yummy!)
- 3/4 cup (6floz/170ml) water
- 3/4 cup (6oz/170g) sugar For the cheese mix.
- 1 cup (5oz/142g) raspberries
- 1 cup (5oz/142g) blueberries
- 2 cups (10ozz/284g) strawberries, quartered
- 1 pack Lady Fingers (Boudoir biscuits/Savoiardi. Look for eggless if needed)
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Toasted slivered almonds and additional berries for garnish
Instructions
-
First, make a simple syrup by combining the water and sugar in a medium saucepan. Once the sugar had dissolved turn off the heat and add in all of the berries. Stir the berries with the syrup to form a berry infused simple syrup.
-
Strain the berries from the syrup and set aside. Now it's a good time to add in the cassis to the berry syrup.
-
In a large bowl using a hand mixer or large whisk, beat the whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
-
Add in the mascarpone cheese and continue to whip to stiff peaks.
-
Dip ladyfingers in the berry simple syrup liquid and place in an 8×8 pan to make the first layer – you can fit about 7 cookies in each layer. Don't let them soak as they will fall apart, just a quick dunk in the syrup is enough.
-
Spread half of the whipped cream mixture on top of the first layer of ladyfingers then top with a layer of the soaked berries. Repeat process with the second layer of ladyfingers, cream mixture, and berries.
-
Dust the top of tiramisu with powdered sugar and sprinkle over some toasted slivered almonds.
-
Refrigerate for about 2-4 hours (it gets even better in the fridge and is a perfect make-ahead dessert).
-
Cover and store in the fridge for up to 1 day.
