Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- 1/3 cup raspberry liqueur
Sweeteners and Flavoring:
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp honey
Garnish and Finishing:
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries (for topping)
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp dark chocolate shavings
Instructions
- Whip the heavy cream in a chilled mixing bowl until soft, billowy peaks form, creating a light and airy texture.
- Gently fold mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and honey into the whipped cream, blending until smooth and uniform.
- Prepare a shallow dish with raspberry liqueur, creating a quick dipping station for the ladyfinger cookies.
- Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the liqueur, ensuring they are lightly moistened but not soggy, then arrange in a single layer across the bottom of a rectangular serving dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture evenly over the first layer of ladyfingers, creating a luxurious creamy blanket.
- Scatter fresh raspberries across the cream layer, allowing them to nestle into the velvety surface.
- Repeat the process with another layer of liqueur-dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone cream.
- Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, allowing flavors to meld and the dessert to set firmly.
- Before serving, dust the top generously with cocoa powder and sprinkle additional fresh raspberries for a vibrant finish.
- Garnish with delicate dark chocolate shavings, adding a rich, elegant touch to the dessert.
- Slice and serve chilled, revealing the beautiful layers of this raspberry-infused Italian classic.
Notes
- Chill your mixing bowl and whisk beforehand to help heavy cream whip faster and achieve more volume.
- Swap raspberry liqueur with raspberry syrup or strong brewed tea for non-alcoholic version, maintaining moisture and flavor depth.
- Use room temperature mascarpone to prevent lumpy cream and ensure smooth, silky texture when folding into whipped cream.
- Quickly dip ladyfingers to prevent them from becoming overly saturated and turning mushy, which can ruin the dessert’s delicate structure.
