- Prepare the White Chocolate Cream:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate by heating it in 20-second intervals, stirring after each until completely smooth. Let it cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the whipped cream and continue mixing until well combined.
- Gently fold the melted white chocolate into the mascarpone mixture. This will create a rich, creamy filling.
- Prepare the Raspberry Mixture:
- In a small bowl, combine the fresh raspberries with the raspberry liqueur (or lemon juice) and mash them lightly with a fork to release the juices. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the raspberries into a purรฉe.
- Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the cooled coffee or espresso, making sure not to soak them too long. Lay them in the bottom of a 9×9-inch dish or a similar-sized serving dish to form the first layer.
- Spread half of the white chocolate mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out with a spatula.
- Drizzle half of the raspberry mixture over the white chocolate layer.
- Repeat the process: dip the remaining ladyfingers into the coffee, layer them on top of the first layer, and spread the remaining white chocolate mixture. Top with the rest of the raspberries.
- Chill and Serve:
- Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld together and the dessert set.
- Before serving, garnish with fresh raspberries and a sprinkle of white chocolate shavings for extra indulgence.
Optional Variations:
- Add a layer of raspberry jam between the white chocolate mascarpone layers for an extra burst of raspberry flavor.
- If you prefer a more intense raspberry flavor, swirl some raspberry purรฉe into the cream mixture before layering.
This White Chocolate Raspberry Tiramisu is a deliciously indulgent dessert with the perfect balance of rich, creamy, and fruity flavors. The white chocolate adds a luscious sweetness that complements the tart raspberries, making it an irresistible treat for any occasion!
