Description
This vibrant Cherry Tiramisu elevates the classic Italian dessert with a fruity twist. Coffee-soaked ladyfingers layer with cherry-infused mascarpone and a glossy cherry sauce, creating a light yet decadent no-bake summer treat.
Ingredients
Pitted Cherries (Fresh or Frozen) 4 cups
Mascarpone Cheese 16 oz (450g)
Heavy Cream 1.5 cups
Granulated Sugar 13 tablespoons
Ladyfingers (Savoiardi) 260g
Non-Alcoholic Cherry Amaretto Syrup 3 tbsp
Brewed Coffee 4 cups
Lemon Juice 1 tbsp
Vanilla Extract 1 tsp
Instructions
Simmer 2 cups pitted cherries with 4 tbsp sugar until reduced to syrup; strain to separate juice from solids.
Blend mascarpone, 8 tbsp sugar, and 9 tbsp cherry juice until smooth; whip cream separately and fold into mixture.
Dip ladyfingers in coffee-syrup mixture (10 seconds) and layer in a dish; cover with half the cherry mascarpone.
Repeat for a second layer, top with remaining cream, and refrigerate for 6 hours to set.
Prepare 2 cups pitted cherries with 4 tbsp sugar and 1 tbsp lemon juice for a smooth cherry sauce topping; drizzle over chilled tiramisu before serving.
Notes
Mascarpone works best when cold
Cherries can be hand-pitted for intensity
Quick dips maintain ladyfinger structure
Chill covered tightly until serving
Store in an airtight container at 4°C for up to 24 hours
