Instructions

  • Simmer cherries with sugar, cornstarch, and water until softened and thickened, then cool.
  • Make Amaretto syrup by heating sugar and water until dissolved. Let cool, then stir in Amaretto.
  • Beat mascarpone with sugar until smooth. Add egg yolks, cream, and vanilla. Mix until creamy.
  • Dip lady fingers quickly into Amaretto syrup and line the bottom of your serving dish.
  • Spread half the mascarpone mixture over the lady fingers, followed by half of the cherry mixture.
  • Repeat layering with the rest of the lady fingers, mascarpone, and cherry mix.
  • Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
  • Before serving, optionally top with whipped cream and dust with cocoa or freeze dried cherries.

Notes

To omit alcohol, substitute Amaretto with water and almond extract. Store tightly covered for up to 3 days in the fridge. Flavor improves after chilling overnight.
