CHERRY TIRAMISU

This variation on a traditional classic is a little lighter and more child friendly than its original form with coffee and liquor.  You can adapt this recipe to suit your needs. 

Sponge Cake (Can be made up to 2 days ahead)

Ingredients (for 23 cm round spring form pan):

5 large eggs

150 grams sugar

150 grams flour

Method:

1) Preheat oven to 170 degrees celcius.

2) Using whisk attachment of a standing mixer, beat eggs and sugar for 15 mins on high until mixture is a light colour and ribbon mixture sits on top instead of sinking into batter immediately.

3) Sift flour into egg mixture and gently mix in with a wooden spoon or spatula.  Do not overmix, tap or flatten or you risk deflating the mixture. 

4) Bake in oven for 30 mins or until top is golden brown and tooth pick comes out clean.

Cream Mixture

Traditionally Tiramisu has raw eggs in the cream, we've gone for a lighter version here.

 

Ingredients:

500 grams Mascarpone cheese

300 ml Whipping cream

60 grams Sugar

Method:

1) Using whisk attachment of a standing mixer or a hand held mixer, beat ingredients together until smooth cream forms.
