Steps for Preparing Valentine’s Day Mixed Berry Tiramisu
Let’s start by preparing the mixed berry jam. Put the mixed berries with 1 tablespoon of sugar in a small pan and cook, it will take less than 5 minutes. I used frozen mixed berries. Let it cool.
In a large bowl, whip the sweetened cream, add the mascarpone and powdered sugar to taste.
Soak the ladyfingers in the liqueur, one at a time, on both sides. Break them and line the base of a cup. Using a piping bag, add the mascarpone cream and then some of the mixed berry jam, repeat with cookies and dollops of cream. Decorate with fresh fruit, I used raspberries and blueberries with fresh mint leaves.
Let it sit in the fridge for at least 3 hours before enjoying, but more time is fine too, so the cookies are perfectly soaked.
Make this for Valentine’s Day; it’s a truly delicious and easy dessert to prepare.
