Ingredients

For the Base

2 cups mascarpone cheese
1 cup heavy cream chilled
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup strong brewed coffee cooled
24 pieces ladyfinger cookies

For the Topping

2 cups fresh strawberries sliced
2 tablespoons powdered sugar for dusting
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar optional

Method

Prepare the Cream Mixture

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract.
Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until it forms stiff peaks.

Prepare the Coffee

In a shallow dish, pour the cooled brewed coffee.
If desired, add a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar to the coffee for added flavor.

Assemble the Tiramisu

Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee, ensuring they are soaked but not mushy.
Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a rectangular serving dish.
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
Repeat the process with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.

Chill the Tiramisu

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

Prepare the Topping

Before serving, slice the fresh strawberries and arrange them on top of the tiramisu.
Dust with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
