Strawberry Kiwi Tiramisu, without the alcohol

December 22, 2014 by Holly Ford 5 Comments

Strawberry Kiwi Tiramisu

Christmas is just around the corner and my kids are excited. I have been busy making cookies, cakes, and all sorts of finger foods under the heaven for parties I held in my home or at friend’s.

One dessert I made that stand out has to be this strawberry kiwi tiramisu. The red and green color combination of strawberries and kiwis offers a Christmas-worthy presentation. You can use strawberries only or mix with other fruits like blueberries or raspberries. They will all look gorgeous on a holiday feast table.

Since there were numbers of kids at the party who will be eating the dessert as well, I wanted to make the tiramisu without the alcohol.

Unlike the authentic tiramisu that uses strong alcohol, such as rum or brandy, to soak the cake layer, I used the mixture of orange juice and lemon juice instead. It brings a delightful taste. The custard is made with the mixture of whipped cream, cream cheese, white chocolate, and mascaporne cheese. Finger-licking tastiness!

The whole thing can be prepared quite easily and quickly. There is no cooking involved except melting the white chocolate in a microwave. I made this strawberry kiwi tiramisu with my daughter and we were able to complete the whole thing within about 30 minutes from start to finish. That includes the chatting time and some picture taking time in between the process!

The real good news is that you can make ahead of time. Now that is anybody’s kind of holiday dessert!

Whip the cream with 1 cup of powdered sugar until the soft peak forms. Set aside.

Melt white chocolate in a microwave for about 45 seconds stirring every 15 seconds. Mix in softened cream cheese and mascarpone cheese.

 

tutorial-6

Add the cheese mixture into the whipped cream and fold together.

Brush each ladyfinger cookie with the orange and lemon juice mixture.

 

tutorial-8

Cover the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan with the cookies.

 

tutorial-11

Spread 1/2 of cream and cheese mixture on the cookies and sprinkle with 1/2 the fruits.

 

tutorial-13

Repeat the layer with cookies and cheese mixture. My daughter is doing great with her spreading.

 

Non-alcoholic Strawberry Kiwi Tiramisu

Garnish the top with remaining fruits, cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge until ready to serve. This can be chilled from 2-12 hours.

I drizzled with some store-bought chocolate syrup before I serve.

The taste? Simply divine!

    Dear Holly,
    I’d like to let you know that the original recipe of Tiramisu does not contain any alcohol at all.
    Maybe in some other countries it has turned into an alcoholic food, but in Italy – and I come from the region where it originates – it’s only made of ladyfingers, mascarpone, coffee, egg yolks, sugar, cocoa powder. Try it like this ๐Ÿ˜‰
    Happy holidays!
    Andrea

      Thanks for clarifying about the Tiramisu. Most tiramisu I had had strong alcohol taste. I believe it is adapted version, then. Coffee is another ingredient that I can’t have, so replacing with fruity flavor is a great thing for me. Thanks. Happy holidays to you, too!
