Fresh Raspberry Tiramisu Layers (Print-Friendly Version)

Mascarpone, raspberries, espresso, and ladyfingers create a luscious layered treat with refreshing fruit flavor.

# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ Main Components

01 - 300 g fresh raspberries
02 - 250 g mascarpone cheese
03 - 200 ml heavy cream
04 - 60 g powdered sugar
05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 - 180 ml brewed espresso, cooled
07 - 200 g ladyfingers
08 - 2 tablespoons raspberry liqueur
09 - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder

# How to Prepare:

01 - In a medium bowl, combine fresh raspberries with raspberry liqueur. Gently mash with a fork to release juices, leaving some berries partially intact.
02 - Whisk mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.
03 - Using an electric mixer set to medium speed, beat the mascarpone mixture for 2 to 3 minutes until stiff peaks form.
04 - Briefly dip each ladyfinger into cooled espresso, ensuring they are just moistened without becoming saturated.
05 - Arrange a layer of espresso-dipped ladyfingers in a rectangular serving dish, covering the base completely.
06 - Smooth half of the whipped mascarpone mixture over the ladyfinger layer using a spatula.
07 - Spoon half of the prepared raspberry mixture over the mascarpone layer, gently spreading with the back of a spoon.
08 - Repeat with another layer of espresso-dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture and remaining raspberry mixture.
09 - Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and dessert to firm.
10 - Before serving, dust the top evenly with cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve.
11 - Serve chilled and, if desired, garnish with additional fresh raspberries.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Ensure mascarpone mixture is well-beaten for optimal creaminess.
02 - Avoid oversoaking ladyfingers in espresso to maintain desired texture.
03 - Substitute raspberry liqueur with raspberry syrup for an alcohol-free version.
04 - Enhance the filling with a touch of grated lemon zest if preferred.
05 - Overnight chilling intensifies the dessert's flavors and improves consistency.
