Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 200g ladyfingers
  • 250g mascarpone cheese
  • 300g fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup or strawberry juice (optional, for soaking ladyfingers)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them thinly. Mix with granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and let them macerate for about 10-15 minutes to release their natural juices.
  2. Assemble the Layers: Pour a small amount of strawberry syrup or juice into a shallow dish. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the syrup to lightly soak them without making them soggy. Place a layer of soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of your serving dish.
  3. Add Mascarpone Layer: Spread half of the mascarpone cheese evenly over the ladyfingers layer using a spatula.
  4. Add Strawberries: Layer half of the macerated strawberry slices evenly over the mascarpone layer.
  5. Repeat Layers: Repeat the process by adding another layer of soaked ladyfingers, the remaining mascarpone, and the remaining strawberries on top.
  6. Chill: Cover the assembled tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld and the dessert set properly.
  7. Serve: Before serving, optionally dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with additional fresh strawberries for a beautiful presentation.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
  • Be careful not to over-soak the ladyfingers or they will become too soggy.
  • For a lighter version, consider using low-fat mascarpone or a mixture of mascarpone and whipped cream.
  • This dessert is best enjoyed within 2 days of preparation for freshness.
