This strawberry tiramisu is a fun and fruity flavor twist on a classic dessert. This is super easy to make with only 10 ingredients and 20 minutes of prep time needed.
Beat 1 cup heavy cream, ½ cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until stiff peaks form. Do not over whip or it will deflate.
Fold in 8 oz mascarpone cheese. Set aside until ready to assemble.
In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup strawberry jam, ¼ cup Grand Marnier and ¼ cup water. Whisk to combine until all clumps are gone.
Using a 9x9 or similar sized baking dish, set out the unwrapped ladyfingers and the strawberry jam mixture.
Quickly dip a single ladyfinger at a time in the strawberry jam mixture, flipping to coat both sides. Transfer to the baking dish. Do not allow the ladyfinger to soak - a quick dip is sufficient. Continue until the bottom of the pan is covered in one layer of the ladyfingers.
Scoop out half of the mascarpone mixture and carefully spread over the ladyfingers. Line up half of the sliced strawberries to create an even layer.
Repeat another layer of the dipped ladyfingers. If you’re using anything other than a 9x9 pan, you may need more or less ladyfingers.
Top with the remaining mascarpone mixture and spread evenly. At this point, cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, top with the remaining sliced strawberries and a dusting of powdered sugar. Slice and serve.
Notes
Tips:
Make sure not to overwhip the mascarpone mixture or it will deflate.
Don't let the ladyfingers sit in the strawberry mixture or they will get oversaturated. A quick dip on both sides is sufficient.
8 hours is the minimum chill time, chilling overnight will result in a better set.
StorageThis strawberry tiramisu can be stored covered in the fridge for 3 - 5 days. It can also be frozen whole or in slices for up to 6 months.
