Ingredients

For the Raspberry Syrup:

4 cups raspberries (fresh or frozen)

½ cup water

¾ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

For the Mascarpone Filling:

1 ½ cups heavy cream

16 ounces mascarpone cheese

¾ cup granulated sugar

¾ cup raspberry syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Assembly:

1 (7 oz) package Savoiardi ladyfingers (about 24)

1 ounce white chocolate (grated)


Instructions

  • Make the Raspberry Syrup:
    In a saucepan, combine raspberries, water, and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until raspberries break down and the syrup thickens (about 10-12 minutes). Stir in lemon juice and cook for another 2 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds. Set aside to cool.

  • Prepare the Mascarpone Filling:
    Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, mix mascarpone cheese and sugar until smooth. Gently fold in whipped cream until fully incorporated. Add raspberry syrup and vanilla extract, stirring until well combined.

  • Assemble the Tiramisu:
    Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled raspberry syrup for a second (don’t soak them) and layer them in the bottom of a 9×9-inch baking dish. Spread a layer of mascarpone filling over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by mascarpone filling.

  • Top with White Chocolate:
    Grate the white chocolate over the top of the assembled tiramisu for added sweetness and texture.

  • Chill and Serve:

  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

Storage: Leftover tiramisu can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Substitute Options: Use dark chocolate instead of white chocolate for a bolder flavor or substitute raspberries with strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries.

Vegan Version: Use plant-based mascarpone, dairy-free whipped cream, and vegan ladyfingers for a vegan alternative.
