The classic tiramisu consists of ladyfingers, coffee, mascarpone and cocoa. But did you know that you can also make strawberry tiramisu? It’s lighter than the original and thus the perfect dessert for summer! Whenever I make it, I have to quickly secure a portion for me before the boys gobble it up in no time! I can’t blame them. And when you taste it you’ll certainly agree: One bite of this delicious dessert and you’ll become addicted, as well.

The good thing is that it’s swift to make. But look for yourselves:

Strawberry Tiramisu

For 4 people (or 2 greedy boys)

Ingredients:

15 – 20 ladyfingers
300 g strawberries
300 g curd cheese
150 g cream
3 tsp sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Wash the strawberries, remove the green leaves and cut them into slices. Put them into a bowl and mix them with 1 tsp of sugar and the lemon juice. Let the strawberries marinate for about 20 – 30 minutes, until a juice forms.
2. Whip the cream until it’s stiff. Mix the curd with 2 tsp of sugar and gently fold in the cream.
3. Put the ladyfingers side by side into a tray. Drizzle some of the strawberry juice over them so that they soak it up. Evenly spread the cream-curd mix onto the ladyfingers and put strawberry slices on top. Repeat these steps until all ingredients are used up. The last layer should be strawberries. Serve well chilled.
