How to Make Strawberry Tiramisu

  1. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 4 large egg yolks with ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar until pale and thick (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Beat in 16 oz (450g) mascarpone cheese until smooth and well combined.
  3. In a separate clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture in two additions, ensuring not to deflate the mixture.
  5. Gently fold in 1 ½ cups (200g) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced.
  6. In a shallow dish, combine ½ cup (120ml) strong brewed coffee and 2 tablespoons of rum or brandy (optional).
  7. Dip one side of 20 ladyfingers (approximately 1 package) briefly into the coffee mixture. Ensure not to soak them, just lightly moisten.
  8. Line the base of an 8x8 inch (20x20cm) serving dish or a similar sized bowl with the moistened ladyfingers.
  9. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
  10. Arrange a layer of the remaining, coffee-dipped ladyfingers on top of the mascarpone mixture.
  11. Spoon the remaining mascarpone mixture over the second layer of ladyfingers.
  12. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  13. Just before serving, sift 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder over the top of the tiramisu.
  14. Garnish with fresh strawberry halves for an elegant touch.
