Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, plus extra for garnish
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)
- 2 cups mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the brewed coffee and coffee liqueur, if using. Set it aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with half the sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese, remaining sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Lay them in a single layer at the bottom of a 9×9-inch dish to form the first layer.
- Spoon half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, spreading it evenly.
- Layer half of the fresh raspberries on top of the mascarpone mixture for added flavor and color.
- Repeat the process with another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture and raspberries.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with extra fresh raspberries for an elegant finish.
Serve chilled and enjoy this exquisite dessert that combines the rich creaminess of tiramisu with the bright acidity of raspberries. Perfect for any dessert lover!
