Making the Cream

Step 1: Whisk fresh cream in a bowl, and in another bowl, mix mascarpone cheese with sugar. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone using a spatula to keep the mixture light and fluffy.

Lemon and Ginger Tiramisu

Step 2: Add lemon zest and grated ginger to the cream mixture, mixing gently to blend the flavors.

Step 3: Prepare a soaking liquid for the ladyfingers by combining milk with lemon-flavored drink and lemon zest in a bowl.

Step 4: Start assembling the dessert by spreading a layer of cream on the bottom of a dish. Dip the ladyfingers into the milk and limoncello mixture briefly, ensuring they don’t become too soggy.

Step 5: Create a layer of ladyfingers over the cream by lining them up next to each other until the surface is covered. Repeat with cream and ladyfingers until the dish is filled.

Step 6: For the candied lemon slices, boil lemon slices for 2-3 minutes to remove bitterness. Drain the slices.

Step 7: In a pan, heat sugar and water. Add lemon slices and let the syrup reduce for about 5 minutes. Remove candied lemon slices from the pan and place on a plate.

Step 8: Chill the tiramisu and candied lemon slices in the fridge for about 2 hours. Decorate the tiramisu with candied lemon, fresh mint leaves, and serve.

Tips: You can use 3 egg whites beaten to stiff peaks instead of fresh cream. Replace dairy with plant-based alternatives and use classic ladyfingers.
