This was borne from a love of tiramisu and wanting to spread this love far and wide. To those who currently don’t like the espresso boozy concoction I suggest this will convert you. I call it ‘white’ simply because there is no chocolate and/or coffee and I realise the addition of cream means it stops technically being a ‘tiramisu’, however it is delicious.
WHITE TIRAMISU
Ingredients
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 egg white, whisked until foamy
- 90g caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250g room temperature mascarpone
- 300ml double cream, softly whipped
- 2 shop bought madeira cake loaves
- 160ml rum
- 200ml milk
- 2 punnets of strawberries
- Juice of half a lemon
Method
- Hull and halve strawberries, squeeze the lemon juice on top and cover with cling film.
- Place the egg yolks and caster sugar in a bowl big enough to take everything later and whisk until pale yellow and sugar has more or less dissolved.
- Add the vanilla extract, mascarpone, foamy egg white and whipped cream. Stir to combine, cover and set aside.
- In a jug combine the milk and rum
- Slice the cake loaves to 1cm thickness and arrange some at the bottom of a glass bowl. Your layer will depend on the shape of the bowl.
- Cover the cake slices with spiked milk, half the strawberries and half of the cream.
- Layer more cake, pour spiked milk on top add the rest of strawberries and the last of the cream.
- Cover with cling film and refrigerate overnight or at least 6 hours before serving.
