Ingredients
Scale
For the strawberry juice:
- 350 g ripe strawberries, tops removed and halved
- 1 tbsp white granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 150 ml water
For the cream mixture:
- 1 medium egg
- 120 g white granulated sugar
- 350 g mascarpone
- 350 ml double cream
- 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
For the tiramisu:
- 400 g ripe strawberries, divided
- 2 x 175g packet of sponge fingers (Savoiardi sponge fingers)
Instructions
- Place the strawberry juice ingredients in a blender and blitz until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Using a stand or hand mixer, whisk the egg for 1 minute, then add the sugar, mascarpone, double cream and vanilla bean paste and whisk on medium speed until the mixture has the consistency of thickly whipped cream, around 2 to 3 minutes.
- Working one at a time, dip the sponge fingers into the strawberry juice, turning for a few seconds until they are nicely coated but not soggy.
- Arrange enough of the sponge fingers to cover the base of a 23 cm square tin in a single layer. Top with half of the cream mixture, spreading it out into an even layer. Thinly slice half of the strawberries then arrange them in a single layer over the cream mixture.
- Repeat with another layer of soaked sponge fingers and top with the remaining cream mixture. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Right before serving, slice the other half of the strawberries and layer them over the top of the tiramisu. Serve and enjoy!
