Enjoy a delightful twist on the classic Italian dessert, tiramisu, with our Strawberry Tiramisu! Picture delicate ladyfinger biscuits soaked in fresh strawberry sauce and layered with a creamy mixture of mascarpone cheese and whipped cream.
Line the sides of an 8-inch (20 cm) square springform pan with acetate sheets. Have the ladyfingers ready, trimming them as needed to fit the pan perfectly.
Prepare the strawberry sauce.
In a saucepan add the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and water.
Bring to a boil and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes.
Use a vertical blender to puree the sauce until smooth.
Sieve to remove seeds and set aside to cool completely.
Prepare the mascarpone filling.
In a large bowl mix Mascarpone cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and mix to combine.
Add whipping cream.
Continue mixing until stiff peaks form.
Assemble the strawberry tiramisu.
Spread ⅓ cup (80g) of strawberry sauce on the bottom of the pan.
Dip ladyfingers in the remaining strawberry sauce.
Arrange in a single layer in the pan.
Spread a bit less than half of the Mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Use an offset spatula to spread evenly.
Dip the remaining ladyfingers into the strawberry sauce and arrange another layer of ladyfingers on top of the Mascarpone mixture.
Transfer the Mascarpone mixture into a piping bag fitted with an ½ inch (1cm) plain tip and pipe the mixture on top of the ladyfingers.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Decorate with fresh strawberries and enjoy.
Slice and serve. Keep the leftovers refrigerated.
