Tropical tiramisu
- Preparation and cooking time
- Prep:
- plus overnight chilling, no cook
- Easy
- Serves 8-10
Ingredients
- 250g tub mascarpone
- 300ml double cream
- 160ml can coconut cream
- 70g icing sugar
- 4 tbsp coconut rum
- 4 limes, zested, plus extra zest pared into fine curls (see tip), to serve
- 150g savoiardi sponge fingers
- 2 medium ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
- 50g flaked coconut, toasted
For the soaking liquid
- 300ml mango juice
- 2 limes, juiced
- 5 tbsp coconut rum
Method
- STEP 1
Beat together the mascarpone, double cream, coconut cream, icing sugar and rum using an electric whisk until thick enough to leave a prominent trail when you turn it off and lift it, then fold through the lime zest.
- STEP 2
Make the soaking liquid by stirring together the mango juice, lime juice and rum in a jug, then pour into a shallow bowl.
- STEP 3
Get a medium dish ready (about 30 x 20cm). Dip half the sponge fingers in the soaking liquid for about 10 seconds on each side and place in a single layer in the dish, then drizzle over 3-4 tbsp of the liquid. Top with a layer of half the mascarpone cream, then a layer of sliced mango (using about half). Repeat with the remaining sponges, mascarpone cream, and mango slices. Chill for at least 5 hrs, or preferably overnight. Just before serving, sprinkle over the flaked coconut and lime zest curls.
