Ingredients:

For the Tiramisu:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
  • 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
  • 2 tablespoons cherry liqueur (optional)
  • 24 ladyfinger cookies
  • 1 cup cherries, pitted and halved
  • Shaved chocolate, for garnish

For the Cherry Sauce:

  • 1 cup cherries, pitted and halved
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Directions:

Prepare the Tiramisu:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  2. Add the mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. In a shallow dish, mix the brewed coffee and cherry liqueur (if using). Quickly dip each ladyfinger cookie into the coffee mixture, making sure not to soak them for too long.
  4. Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a serving dish.
  5. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Top with half of the halved cherries.
  6. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of mascarpone mixture on top.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.

Make the Cherry Sauce:

  1. In a saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, lemon juice, and water over medium heat.
  2. Cook until the cherries are soft and the sugar has dissolved, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry.
  4. Stir the cornstarch slurry into the cherry mixture and cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool before serving.

Assemble and Serve:

  1. Before serving, garnish the chilled tiramisu with shaved chocolate and drizzle with the cherry sauce.
  2. Slice and serve chilled.
