Strawberry Tiramisu (For Those In Greece)
- 300 g cream cheese
- 200 ml cream (full-fat)
- 1 (400 g) vegetal cream (I used Morfat)
- 1 (400 g) condensed milk
- 1/2 cup icing sugar (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 2 (200 g) packets ladyfinger biscuits
- 1 tablespoon espresso powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 cups water
- 500 g strawberries
- 1/4 cup orange liqueur
- 1/2 cup frozen raspberries (thawed) (optional)
- cocoa powder, for dusting the top
- Beat cream cheese, vegetal cream, dairy cream, condensed milk, icing sugar and vanilla essence in a mixer until smooth and thickened.
- Boil 1 cup of water and pour into a shallow dish adding espresso coffee and sugar. Stir until it dissolves and then add the remaining cup of water.
- Meanwhile hull and slice strawberries and and pour orange liqueur over them and toss lightly. (You can add defrosted raspberries here too at this point.).
- Dip each ladyfinger biscuit into the coffee but only halfway as the coffee mix is still warm and they will get soggy quickly. Make sure you dip the smooth side.
- Place in a long rectangular dish that fits the width of two biscuits.
- Layer biscuits dipped in coffee, then add half the strawberries scattered over the biscuits including half of the liqueur.
- Pour half of the cream over the top and smooth gently.
- Add another layer of coffee dipped ladyfingers and the rest of the strawberries.
- Finally add the remaining cream and smooth the top.
- Dust with pure cocoa powder and allow the dessert to sit in the fridge for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight.
