STRAWBERRY TIRAMISU
TREATS FROM RETREATSIngredients
Strawberry sauce:
I usually prepare about 2 cups of it.
3 cups strawberries
1/2 cup sugar or sweetener of your choice
juice from one lemon
Cream:
500 gr mascarpone cheese (2 packs)
120 gr Philadelphia cheese (or other cream cheese)
250 ml heavy cream that you use for making whipped cream. I usually use a vegan version
1 cup sugar or other sweetener. You can use less. Depending on how sweet you like the cream to be.
Other:
Approximately 28 pieces of ladyfinger (savoyards) biscuits
Cacao or coffee for the top
2 cups of strawberries cut into pieces (I usually cut them into circular shapes)
Directions
Strawberry sauce: Place all your sauce ingredients into blender and prepare your sauce. Add more sweetener if you feel like.
Cream: Using a hand mixer prepare your whipped cream. Afterwards fold in the rest of your ingredients for the cream.
Assembly: Dip the biscuits into prepared strawberry sauce and arrange them on the bottom of your barking dish. I usually make sure they are soaked from both sides. Cover with a layer of cream. Arrange strawberries on top. Continue again with a biscuit layer, cover it with a cream lawyer. Dust the top with cacao or coffee powder and decorate with strawberries. Leave it in the fridge for about 6 hours and then enjoy! The dessert tastes best the next day.
