Ingredients
Scale
- For the Raspberry Sauce
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the Tiramisu
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 8 oz mascarpone cheese
- 8 oz white chocolate, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup brewed espresso, cooled
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur (optional)
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- Fresh raspberries and shaved white chocolate for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Raspberry Sauce
- In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let it cool. Strain if desired to remove seeds.
- Prepare Tiramisu
- Whip Cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Mix Mascarpone: In another bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, melted white chocolate, and vanilla extract. Gently fold in the whipped cream until well combined.
- Combine Coffee: In a shallow dish, combine the brewed espresso and coffee liqueur (if using).
- Dip Ladyfingers
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer them in the bottom of a serving dish or individual glasses.
- Layer Ingredients
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Drizzle half of the raspberry sauce on top.
- Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture and the rest of the raspberry sauce.
- Chill and Serve
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.
- Garnish: Before serving, garnish with fresh raspberries and shaved white chocolate.
Notes
- For a more intense raspberry flavor, let the raspberry sauce sit in the fridge for a couple of hours before using.
- The tiramisu can be made in individual servings or a larger trifle-style dish.
- If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the coffee liqueur.
