Description
A vibrant twist on classic tiramisu, featuring layers of orange-infused mascarpone, citrus-soaked ladyfingers, and a hint of Grand Marnier, all served in individual jars for a stunning sunset effect.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Zest of 1 orange
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder for dusting
- Orange slices or zest for garnish
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, mix mascarpone, sugar, vanilla, and orange zest until smooth. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until combined.
- In a shallow dish, combine orange juice and Grand Marnier (if using). Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the mixture, ensuring they are moist but not soggy.
- Layer the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of four serving jars. Add a layer of the mascarpone mixture on top. Repeat with another layer of ladyfingers and mascarpone.
- Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and garnish with orange slices or zest.
