Description

This dessert is a delicious raspberry version of the traditional Italian tiramisu. It's made with lady fingers, mascarpone cheese, raspberry jam and raspberry syrup.

Ingredients

• Raspberry Jam:
• 17-18 oz. frozen raspberries
• 3-4 oz. granulated sugar
• 1 T. lemon juice
• Raspberry Syrup:
• 3-4 oz. granulated sugar
• 4 oz. water
• 1 oz. frozen raspberries
• 3 T. limoncello, optional
• Mascarpone Filling:
• 16 oz. mascarpone cheese, cold
• 4 oz. powdered sugar
• 2 T. lemon juice
• 1 t. vanilla paste
• 17 oz. heavy cream, cold
• For Assembly:
• 25 ladyfinger cookies (depending on the size of the pan)
• fresh raspberries and lemon slices, for garnish

Steps

1. Raspberry Jam:
2. Add the frozen raspberries, sugar and lemon juice to a saucepan; heat until the raspberries are no longer frozen, have started to break down, and the liquid has come to a bubble. Once bubbling, turn down to a simmer, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, mashing down the raspberries.
3. Let simmer 23-25 minutes or until the raspberry jam has thickened. Test, by adding a bit of the jam to the back of a spoon. If you can make a line down the middle with your finger without it moving, it’s done.
