Dessert Recipe: Berry Tiramisu Icebox Cake
Servings: 8
Southern Living ~ Step by Step
Who says tiramisu has to be coffee flavored? This berry tiramisu icebox cake proves that ladyfingers and mascarpone can be used in so many wonderful ways.
Recipe by: Jessie Sheehan
-
Ingredients:
- 1 (16-oz.) container (about 3 cups) fresh strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped, plus more for garnish
- 2 (6-oz.) containers fresh raspberries (about 1 1/2 cups), plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 2-4 Tbsp. fruit-flavored liqueur (such as Chambord, Grand Marnier, or limoncello) or orange juice, as needed
- 2 cups mascarpone cheese (from 2 [8-oz.] pkg.), at room temperature
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
- 1 (7-oz.) pkg. crisp ladyfingers
- Stir together strawberries, raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a large bowl, and let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with plastic wrap. Coat sides of pan with cooking spray, and line sides with a 3-inch-wide strip of parchment paper. Set aside.
- Drain berry mixture over a shallow bowl, reserving juice. Pour juice into a measuring cup (you should have about 1/2 cup), and add liqueur or orange juice to yield 2/3 cup liquid. Set aside.
- Place mascarpone in a large bowl, and beat briefly with an electric mixer on low speed to loosen. Add cream, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt; beat on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, about 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed.
- Dip 1 ladyfinger in berry liquid for about 3 seconds, and place in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining ladyfingers and berry liquid, breaking ladyfingers as necessary to fit snugly and create a solid layer. Evenly cover with half of the drained berries (about 2 cups), and spread half of the mascarpone whipped cream (about 3 cups) over berries. Repeat with another layer of ladyfingers, berries, and mascarpone whipped cream. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until icebox cake is firm, about 4 hours.
- When ready to serve, remove sides of pan, and peel away parchment paper. Remove springform bottom and plastic wrap. Using a large spatula or cake lifter, carefully transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with additional strawberries and raspberries. Slice and serve cake immediately.
