Ingredients
STRAWBERRY JUICE
- 2 cups chopped strawberries
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ½ cup cold water
CREAM MIXTURE
- 1 large pasteurized egg*
- 1 cup mascarpone
- 1 cup cream whole, heavy or whipping cream, with at least 30% fat content
- 1½ tablespoons powdered sugar (sifted)
- 30 Italian ladyfinger cookies (approximately)
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
*The egg can be left out if you wish.
Instructions
STRAWBERRY JUICE
- Clean and chop the strawberries into small pieces sprinkle with sugar, then place the strawberries, lemon juice and water in a blender, blend until smooth, pour into a bowl and set aside.
CREAM MIXTURE
- In a medium/large bowl beat the egg (if using) for approximately 30 seconds then add the sugar, mascarpone and cream, beat on medium until thickened, we like it nice and thick, some like it a bit thinner.
PUTTING IT ALTOGETHER
- Lady Finger Cookies (approximately 30 or more if needed) 1 baking dish (I used 10 x 7 inch / 26 x 17 cm).
- In a small bowl add half the strawberry juice to start, (you may have left over strawberry juice, which is great over ice cream or even add a little more sugar and it makes a great drink) dip the ladyfinger cookies in the juice (turning quickly to coat all the cookie with the juice, but don't leave them submerged in the juice or you will end up with a soggy tiramisu) then arrange the cookies on bottom of the baking dish, cover with half the cream mixture, cover with the sliced strawberries, repeat cookies for another layer and cover with the remaining cream mixture.
- Refrigerate for at least 4-5 hours or even over night. Top with fresh strawberries before serving. Enjoy!
