Instructions
Follow these easy steps to create your Irresistible Cherry Amaretto Tiramisu:
1. Prepare the Cherries: In a small bowl, combine the halved cherries with half of the amaretto liqueur. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavor.
2. Make the Cream Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until the mixture is smooth and forms soft peaks.
3. Combine the Coffee and Amaretto: In a shallow dish, mix the brewed coffee with the remaining amaretto liqueur.
4. Dip the Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
5. Layer the Ingredients: In a serving dish, arrange a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture over the ladyfingers, then layer half of the cherries on top.
6. Repeat the Layers: Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture. Top with the remaining cherries.
7. Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best flavor development.
8. Serve: Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and add additional cherries for garnish if desired.
By following these steps, you’ll create a stunning and delicious Cherry Amaretto Tiramisu that will leave everyone wanting more.
