MIXED BERRY TIRAMISU
Steps:
- Cook frozen mixed berries and 6 tablespoons sugar in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until mixture resembles jam and is reduced to 1 cup, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Cool jam mixture.
- Strain syrup from thawed raspberries through sieve set over bowl, pressing gently on solids. Discard solids. Add raspberry liqueur to raspberry syrup in bowl. Using sharp knife, trim 1 biscuit to 3-inch (about) length. Quickly dip biscuit into syrup, turning to coat lightly. Place rounded end up and sugared side against side of 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Repeat with as many biscuits as necessary to cover sides of pan. Dip more biscuits in syrup and arrange on bottom of pan, covering completely and trimming to fit.
- In bowl, whisk mascarpone with 6 tablespoons sugar and vanilla to blend. Set aside. Thinly slice enough strawberries to measure 1/2 cup. Gently spread half of jam mixture over biscuits in bottom of pan. Spoon half of mascarpone mixture over; smooth top. Sprinkle with sliced strawberries, 1/2 cup fresh raspberries and 1/2 cup blueberries. Dip more biscuits into syrup; arrange over fruit in pan, covering completely and trimming to fit. Gently spread remaining jam mixture over biscuits. Spoon remaining mascarpone mixture over; smooth top. Cover; chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Release pan sides. Transfer cake to platter. Arrange remaining fresh berries decoratively atop cake and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh berries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh berries, you can use frozen berries that have been thawed and drained.
- Make sure the mascarpone is cold before you start making the tiramisu. This will help it to whip up more easily.
- Don't over-beat the mascarpone. If you over-beat it, it will become grainy.
- Use a good quality coffee for the ladyfingers. This will help to give the tiramisu a rich flavor.
- Dip the ladyfingers in the coffee quickly, so that they don't get too soggy.
- Let the tiramisu chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.
Conclusion:
Mixed berry tiramisu is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy mascarpone filling, sweet ladyfingers, and tangy berries, this tiramisu is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
