Tropical Tiramisu
Recipe:
2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream, cold
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste
1 8oz. Mascarpone Cream, room temperature
20-25 Italian lady fingers
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup mango, diced (fresh or canned)
1 cup pineapple, diced (fresh or canned)
1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
Directions:
Place heavy whipped cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl and whip using a stand mixer or an electric hand mixer until soft peaks.
Then add the mascarpone cream and whip for 2 min. or until thick/ stiff peaks. Place aside or in the fridge if weather is hot.
Prepare and dice mango and pineapple or drain if using canned fruits.
In a small deep dish or pyrex, dip a lady finger in the pineapple juice generously and place in the deep dish.
You can also place the lady fingers in the dish a pour half of the juice. But make sure you get all sides. (Note: pineapple juice isn't like coffee so you have to be generous when you dip)
Place a layer or your cream on top of the pineapple dipped lady fingers in the deep dish, then top with a layer of fruit.
Place another layer of pineapple juice dipped lady fingers, then cream, then top with the shredded sweetened coconut.
Allow at least 6 hours for lady finger to moisten or it's even better overnight. Make sure you cover well if you will eat it the next day. Enjoy!
