  • Total Time: 8 hours 50 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Raspberry Jam

  • 500 g frozen raspberries
  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Raspberry Syrup

  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 120 g water
  • 30 g frozen raspberries
  • 3 tbsp limoncello (optional)

Mascarpone Filling

  • 450 g mascarpone cheese (cold)
  • 120 g powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 480 g heavy cream (cold, approx. 500 ml)

Assembly

  • 25 ladyfinger cookies (adjust quantity to pan size)
  • Fresh raspberries and lemon slices for decoration

Instructions

  1. Make Raspberry Jam: Combine 500 g frozen raspberries, 100 g granulated sugar, and 1 tbsp lemon juice in a saucepan. Heat until raspberries thaw and begin to break down, bringing the mixture to a bubble. Reduce to a simmer and mash raspberries with a rubber spatula, stirring occasionally.
  2. Simmer Jam to Thicken: Continue simmering for 23-25 minutes until thickened. Test by spooning jam onto the back of a spoon and drawing a line with your finger—if it holds, the jam is done. Pour into a shallow bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate to cool to room temperature or colder, about 1 hour.
  3. Prepare Raspberry Syrup: While jam cools, place 100 g sugar, 120 g water, and 30 g frozen raspberries in a small saucepan over high heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture boils. Reduce to simmer and cook for 3 minutes, mashing raspberries occasionally.
  4. Strain Syrup: Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove raspberry seeds, discarding the seeds. Stir in 3 tbsp limoncello (optional) and cool syrup to room temperature.
  5. Make Mascarpone Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat 450 g cold mascarpone, 120 g powdered sugar, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp vanilla paste with a hand or stand mixer until smooth, about 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  6. Whip Heavy Cream: Add 480 g cold heavy cream to the mascarpone mixture and whisk until medium-stiff peaks form, ensuring a stable, fluffy filling.
  7. Assemble Tiramisu – First Layer: Spread a small amount of mascarpone cream evenly at the bottom of a 27×20 cm or similarly sized baking dish. Briefly dip each ladyfinger into the raspberry syrup twice on each side to soak but not become soggy, then arrange a layer of dipped ladyfingers in the dish.
  8. Add Filling and Jam Layers: Spread half of the remaining mascarpone cream evenly over the ladyfingers. Spoon half of the raspberry jam evenly on top of the mascarpone layer. Do not add the remaining jam yet.
  9. Assemble Tiramisu – Second Layer: Repeat the layer of syrup-dipped ladyfingers, then spread the remaining mascarpone cream smoothly over them. Cover the tiramisu tightly with plastic wrap.
  10. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled tiramisu for at least 8 hours or preferably overnight to set and allow flavors to meld.
  11. Serve: Before serving, spread the remaining raspberry jam in an even layer on top of the tiramisu. Optionally garnish with fresh raspberries and lemon slices for an elegant presentation.

Notes

  • Use cold mascarpone and heavy cream for best whipping results.
  • Dip ladyfingers quickly to avoid sogginess and maintain texture.
  • Limoncello is optional but adds lovely citrus notes; omit for a non-alcoholic version.
  • Allowing the tiramisu to chill overnight improves flavor and texture.
  • The size and number of ladyfingers can vary depending on your baking dish; adjust accordingly.
