Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Ladyfingers – 24 pieces
  • Mascarpone cheese – 500g
  • Coconut milk or cream – 1 cup (240ml)
  • Raffaello candies – 12 pieces, roughly chopped
  • Shredded coconut – 1/2 cup
  • Sugar – 1/3 cup (65g)
  • Whipped cream – 1 cup (240ml), softly whipped
  • Vanilla extract – 1 tsp
  • Coconut liqueur or rum (optional) – 1/4 cup (60ml)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Coconut Mascarpone Cream: In a chilled bowl, combine 500g mascarpone cheese, 1 cup coconut milk or cream, 1/3 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat gently until the mixture is smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of cream until soft peaks form, then fold it carefully into the mascarpone mixture to keep the texture light and fluffy.
  2. Soak the Ladyfingers: Pour 1 cup of coconut milk or coconut liqueur into a shallow dish. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the liquid, making sure not to soak too long so they remain firm but infused with flavor.
  3. Assemble the Layers: Start by layering soaked ladyfingers in your serving dish or individual glasses. Spread a generous layer of the mascarpone coconut cream over the ladyfingers. Sprinkle shredded coconut and roughly chopped Raffaello candies on top. Repeat the layers until you fill your dish, finishing with a creamy layer and topping with more shredded coconut and whole Raffaello candies for garnish.
  4. Chill and Set: Cover your assembled tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to set perfectly.

Notes

  • Choose high-quality mascarpone for best creaminess and flavor.
  • Do not oversoak the ladyfingers to avoid sogginess.
  • Fold whipped cream gently to maintain a light texture in mascarpone cream.
  • Use fresh coconut flakes for better texture and natural flavor.
  • Allow the tiramisu to rest and chill overnight to enhance flavor and consistency.
