Description

This Delectable Raspberry Tiramisu Delight is a refreshing twist on the classic Italian dessert, combining layers of coffee-soaked ladyfinger cookies with a rich mascarpone and whipped cream mixture, fresh raspberries, and a dusting of cocoa powder. Perfectly chilled for hours to meld flavors, this dessert is sure to impress and satisfy the sweet tooth of your guests.


Ingredients

Liquid Mixture

  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)

Cheese and Cream Mixture

  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Assembly

  • 24 ladyfinger cookies
  • 1 ½ cups fresh raspberries
  • Cocoa powder for dusting


Instructions

  1. Prepare Coffee Mixture: In a shallow bowl, combine the brewed coffee and coffee liqueur, if using. Set this mixture aside to be used for dipping the ladyfingers later.
  2. Whip Cream: Using a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, ensuring it’s light and airy for folding into the mascarpone.
  3. Mix Mascarpone Base: In a separate bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese together with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine Cream and Mascarpone: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until thoroughly combined, maintaining the mixture’s light texture.
  5. Dip Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, being careful not to soak them too long to avoid sogginess.
  6. Layer First Base: Arrange half of the coffee-dipped ladyfingers in the bottom of your serving dish to form the first layer.
  7. Add First Topping: Spread half of the mascarpone and cream mixture evenly over the ladyfingers, then scatter half of the fresh raspberries on top.
  8. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process with the remaining coffee-dipped ladyfingers, mascarpone mixture, and raspberries to create stacked layers.
  9. Dust with Cocoa: Generously dust the top layer with cocoa powder for a rich finishing touch.
  10. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled tiramisu for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set before serving.

Notes

  • Use strong brewed coffee for a pronounced coffee flavor.
  • Adjust the coffee liqueur quantity or omit it completely based on preference or dietary restrictions.
  • Dip ladyfingers quickly to prevent them from becoming too soggy.
  • Refrigerating overnight enhances the flavor and texture.
  • Fresh raspberries add a tart contrast but can be substituted with other berries if desired.
