Step 3: Prepare the Ladyfingers
- In a shallow dish, mix 1/2 cup brewed coffee and 1/2 cup raspberry liqueur (or just coffee if you prefer non-alcoholic).
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are moist but not soggy.
- Arrange a single layer of soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of your serving dish (a 9×9 inch pan works well).
Step 4: Layer the Tiramisu
- Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers, smoothing it evenly.
- Spoon half of the raspberry compote on top of the cream.
- Repeat the layers: remaining soaked ladyfingers, mascarpone cream, and raspberry compote.
- For an elegant finish, leave some raspberries whole and scatter them on top.
Step 5: Chill and Set
- Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together and the dessert to firm up.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
- Before serving, lightly dust with cocoa powder or grated dark chocolate for a professional touch.
- Add fresh mint leaves and extra raspberries for vibrant color and aroma.
- Use a sharp knife to cut into squares and serve chilled.
Tips for Perfection
- Ladyfingers: Avoid soaking too long; they should absorb flavor without becoming mushy.
- Mascarpone mixture: Keep everything cold to ensure a firm and fluffy cream layer.
- Raspberry flavor: Fresh or frozen raspberries work, but fresh give the best aroma and texture.
- Make ahead: This dessert tastes even better the next day, as the flavors continue to develop.
