Ingredients
Scale
Cream Mixture
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Lemon Mascarpone Mixture
- 2 (12.7-ounce) jars lemon curd
- 16 ounces mascarpone cheese
Assembly
- 48 ladyfingers
- 3 cups blueberry juice
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 lemon, halved and thinly sliced
Instructions
- Whip Cream: In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or using a large bowl and handheld mixer, beat the heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar, and kosher salt on medium-high speed until medium peaks form. Avoid whipping to stiff peaks to maintain a soft, airy texture.
- Prepare Lemon Mascarpone: In a separate large bowl, gently fold together the lemon curd and mascarpone cheese until the mixture is smooth and well combined, maintaining a light consistency.
- Dip Ladyfingers: Pour the blueberry juice into a shallow dish or long container that can accommodate the ladyfingers. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the juice for about 1 second to soak the exterior without making them soggy.
- First Layer Assembly: Line the bottom of a 13″ x 9″ baking dish with the dipped ladyfingers in two vertical rows of 12. Spread half of the lemon mascarpone mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
- Second Layer Assembly: Repeat the dipping and layering process with the remaining ladyfingers and the rest of the lemon mascarpone mixture. Then, spread the freshly whipped cream evenly on top.
- Garnish and Chill: Arrange fresh blueberries and thin lemon slices over the whipped cream topping. Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill thoroughly before serving.
Notes
- Do not soak ladyfingers for too long to prevent them from becoming overly soggy.
- Use cold ingredients, especially the heavy cream, for best whipping results.
- This dessert can be prepared a day in advance and kept refrigerated.
- For a stronger blueberry flavor, consider using homemade blueberry juice or a concentrated blueberry syrup.
- If lemon curd is not readily available, it can be homemade or substituted with lemon jam or lemon marmalade.
