Ingredients
  

  • 2 7.05 ounces packages of ladyfingers each packet is about 200g

For The Strawberry Compote

  • 4 cups strawberries chopped small
  • cups granulated sugar
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch + 1 tablespoon cold water
  • 2 cups milk

For The Cream

  • 16 ounces mascarpone cheese
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

To Make the Strawberry Compote

  • Chop the strawberries finely.
  • Add them to a pot on medium-high heat along with the sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1 cup of water.
  • Mix well and let it cool down for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don’t burn. You want them to be extremely soft.
  • Mix the cornstarch with the cold water to make a slurry and add it to the strawberries. Mix until thickened before removing from the heat to cool completely.

To Make the Cream

  • Beat the mascarpone, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla together. Whisk for about 10 minutes until stiff peaks appear.

To Assemble the Strawberry Tiramisu

  • Lightly dip each ladyfinger into the milk and layer 1 time at the bottom of your pan. Add the cream layer and spread it evenly.
  • Add half of the cooled strawberry compote.
  • Dip the biscuits again and layer once more.
  • Add the remaining strawberry compote before topping with the remaining cream.
  • Top with powdered sugar or crushed freeze-dried strawberries.
  • Cool your tiramisu and set it for 4 hours in the fridge. Serve your amazing Strawberry Tiramisu. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you don’t have ladyfinger cookies, you can use vanilla cookies instead.
  • Make sure that the ingredients of the cream layer, like mascarpone cheese and whipping cream, are at room temperature in order to mix together more easily.
  • Whisk the cream until stiff peaks appear. This helps to thicken the filling and sets the texture of no-bake tiramisu.
  • For the best results, chill the tiramisu for at least 3 hours before serving to allow for the ladyfingers to soften up and for the filling to set.
