When berry season arrives, that is the very very first thing I make! This no bake Strawberry Tiramisu makes use of strawberry jam to soak the ladyfingers plus a conventional mascarpone filling and loads of thinly sliced contemporary strawberries for max taste.

I am supplying you with permission to eat this for breakfast as a result of: fruit and eggs. I am additionally begging you to recollect tiramisu if you want a make-ahead dessert that requires minimal prep time and does not require any baking! It is largely simply meeting work right here!

I in all probability ought to have researched different strategies for making strawberry tiramisu earlier than I developed my very own recipe, however the factor is: I used all of my favourite issues for this recipe as an alternative. My favourite fruit, my favourite mascarpone cream combination (the identical because the one on high of my tiramisu cookies), and my favourite sort of cookie!

The perfect issues about this strawberry tiramisu

• I used the smooth ladyfingers (usually discovered within the produce division) as an alternative of the exhausting, crispy ones. You might use both ones, however I favor the smooth, fluffy cakey taste of the smooth ones.
• My soak for the ladyfingers is my favourite jar of strawberry jam. Do not use strawberry jelly–grab jam as a result of it usually has items of complete fruit in it.
• I added Chambord (raspberry liquor) to skinny out the jam within the soaking liquid. If you do not have Chambord, you need to use orange liquor (Cointreau is one of the best). Should you do not wish to use alcohol in any respect, use contemporary orange juice as an alternative.

Elements

• Strawberries. One pound of contemporary strawberries, washed, tops eliminated, and thinly sliced. Save a couple of for garnish, too!
• Sugar. One tablespoon of granulated sugar for sprinkling on high of every layer of contemporary fruit within the dish.
• Strawberry Jam. One-half cup of strawberry jam (not strawberry jelly). We’re utilizing jam as a result of it is thicker, has extra taste, and infrequently incorporates items of complete fruit. Jam is made with complete fruit; jelly is made with juice.
• Fruit Liquor. My first alternative for the soak is Chambord (raspberry liquor) or Cointreau (orange liquor). Nonetheless, if you wish to keep away from alcohol, use an equal quantity of contemporary orange juice as an alternative.
• Ladyfingers Cookies. We’d like 24 ladyfingers for this recipe. My desire is the smooth ones usually discovered within the produce part, however you need to use the exhausting ones as an alternative, should you favor. Should you use the exhausting ones, you might want to double the soaking liquid as a result of they’ll take in extra of it.
• Egg Yolks. We’d like 4 massive egg yolks to make the mascarpone combination. Don’t use the egg whites; save them for a unique recipe or an omelette.
• Heavy Cream. We’ll whip ¾ cup of very chilly heavy cream to fold into the mascarpone combination to lighten it up.
• Powdered Sugar. A small quantity (¼ cup) of powdered sugar to sweetened the whipped cream.
• Mascarpone. We’d like one 8-ounce container of mascarpone cheese, barely softened so we will whip it very nicely. If you cannot discover this barely softer and sweeter model of cream cheese, chances are you’ll use cream cheese. Nonetheless, should you use cream cheese, enhance the quantity of powdered sugar to ½ cup. This may assist take away the tanginess of the cream cheese. Mascarpone cheese is commonly discovered within the imported cheese part of the shop, and generally it is by the ricotta.
