Strawberry Tiramisu Cake Recipe

This strawberry tiramisu is definitely one of my favorite strawberry desserts.  Rich, fruity, and creamy – simply delicious! And you will need only 30 minutes to prepare it. Easy to make and so refreshing! Here is the recipe:

Servings 8

Ingredients:

For the strawberry juice:

• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 3/4 cups strawberries, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 cup water, cold

For the cream mixture:

• 1 cup mascarpone
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 egg
• 3/4 cup chopped strawberries
• Around 30 savoiardi or Ladyfingers

To garnush:

• cocoa powder (optional)
• fresh strawberries (optional)

Instructions:

To make the strawberry juice:

• Rinse and chop the strawberries into little pieces and sprinkle them with sugar.
• In a blender, apply the strawberries, water, and lemon juice, mix until smooth, place into a bowl and leave aside.

To make the cream mixture:

• In a bowl, beat together egg and sugar until combined (around one minute) then put the cream and mascarpone, and whisk on medium speed until thickened (around 5 to 8 minutes) – you don’t want it to be too thin or too thick, just smooth and creamy).
• Putting it all together: savoiardi/ladyfingers (around 30 or more if needed), 1 baking dish (for this recipe I used 12 by 10 in.)
• In a bowl, add the strawberry juice and dip the savoiardi/ ladyfingers in the juice, and arrange them on the bottom of the baking dish. Next, cover with 1/2 the cream mix, and sprinkle with 3/4 cup strawberries. Repeat the procedure (another layer of cookies and cover with remaining cream mix).
• Place in the fridge for at least 4 to 5 hours (or ideally overnight). Before serving, sprinkle with cocoa powder and/or top with some fresh strawberries (if desired).

Buon Appetito!
