Ingredients
Scale
Dairy and Chocolate
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 150g high-quality white chocolate
Fruits
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Other
- 20 savoiardi (ladyfingers)
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Brew Coffee: Brew 1 cup of strong coffee and allow it to cool completely to avoid soggy ladyfingers.
- Melt White Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate over simmering water or in the microwave until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly so it doesn’t curdle when mixed.
- Prepare Mascarpone Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, melted white chocolate, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip the mixture until creamy and smooth.
- Soak Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee, making sure not to soak them too long to retain some firmness.
- Assemble Layers: In a rectangular dish, lay a single layer of soaked ladyfingers. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over them, then sprinkle half of the fresh raspberries evenly. Repeat the layering with the remaining ladyfingers, mascarpone mixture, and raspberries.
- Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly.
Notes
- Use high-quality white chocolate for a richer flavor and smoother texture.
- Be careful not to over-soak the ladyfingers to prevent a soggy dessert.
- For an adult version, consider adding a splash of coffee liqueur into the brewed coffee before soaking the ladyfingers.
- This tiramisu is best served chilled and consumed within 2 days for optimal freshness.
- Fresh raspberries can be substituted with frozen raspberries if out of season; just thaw and drain excess liquid before use.
