Ingredients
Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.
Full measurements are in the recipe card below.
Mascarpone cheese- is the most important ingredient, make sure that you put your mascarpone cheese at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before starting to make the recipe.
Heavy cream- make sure that your heavy cream is cold. Cold heavy cream whips better and quicker.
Granulated sugar- you will need ½ cup of granulated sugar for this recipe. The dessert will be sweet, but not too sweet. ½ cup of sugar is the perfect balance of sweetness for this recipe.
Ladyfingers- we used store-bought ladyfingers, but homemade ladyfingers will work amazing for this recipe!
Strawberry jam- you can use your favorite strawberry jam for this or make your own! You can also use strawberry compote or strawberry sauce.
Freeze-dried strawberries- do not use dried strawberries, only freeze-dried strawberries!
Vanilla extract- adds extra flavor. You can use vanilla bean extract or pure vanilla extract for better flavor!
Strawberries- wash your strawberries really well and dry them with paper towels. Then cut them in halves.
Milk- I used whole milk to dip the ladyfingers in. You can use your favorite milk for this.
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add the mascarpone cheese, vanilla extract, and sugar, and mix with an electric hand mixer until well combined.

Add the cold heavy cream and mix until the mixture thickens.

Add the strawberry jam and ground freeze-dried strawberries and mix until well combined.

Dip the ladyfingers quickly in the milk (1-2 seconds) and lay them in an even layer in the 10.5-inch x 7.5-inch baking pan.

Top the soaked ladyfingers with half of the mascarpone mixture and smooth it out with a spatula.

Add another layer of the dipped ladyfingers and top it with the remaining mascarpone mixture. Smooth it out with an offset spatula.
Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Sprinkle strawberry powder (from 1 cup of ground freeze-dried strawberries) on top of the tiramisu and top it with sliced strawberries. Serve and enjoy.

Expert Tips
- Make sure that you are using room-temperature mascarpone cheese in this recipe, this step makes it easier to mix the cheese with no unnecessary lumps, we don’t want that in your cream mixture.
- Use high-fat mascarpone cheese. Using full-fat cream mascarpone ensures that your dessert will be stable.
- Let your dessert chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours. We know it’s very hard to resist eating this delicious dessert right away, but you have to let it chill and soak up the flavors. We like to let it sit in the fridge overnight.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl frequently to ensure that you have a homogeneous mixture that has no cheese lumps.
- Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.
- Make sure that you make this dessert with the best quality ingredients that you can find and afford. The quality of the ingredients is what makes this dessert delish.

Faq's
To prevent your dessert from becoming soggy, make sure that you dip your ladyfingers in the milk for 1-2 seconds and do not soak it for a few seconds.
No. Mascarpone is an Italian cream cheese made with heavy cream, and whipping cream is made with heavy cream that didn't go through the process of cheese making.
You can find mascarpone cheese in the deli section of your grocery store, where all the cheeses, hummus, and meat products.
No! This no bake tiramisu is made with no eggs and no coffee. It does contain eggs in the ladyfingers though.

Storing
Store this dessert in the fridge (since it contains dairy) covered tightly with plastic wrap for up to 3 days. I like eating this the day after.
Freezing
Freezing tiramisu is very easy. Simply transfer the tiramisu into an airtight freezer-friendly container and freeze it for up to 2 months. I suggest freezing it without the strawberry powder on top.
To thaw, place it in the fridge overnight.
Make it in advance
Make these in advance by prepping the mascarpone cream 1-2 days ahead, storing it in an airtight container in the fridge, and layer the tiramisu a few hours before serving.
Another way to make it in advance is to make it completely 1-2 days ahead and top it with cocoa powder before serving.

Substitutions
Gluten-free - if you want to make this recipe gluten-free, simply replace the ladyfingers with gluten-free ladyfingers.
Cream cheese- if you can't find mascarpone cheese, you can use cream cheese instead.
Variations
Fruit- you can switch the strawberries with other berries of your choice and make this into a berry tiramisu like blueberry or raspberry tiramisu.
