Berry Tiramisu Trifle Recipe

Ingredients:
6 oz lady fingers
1/2 lb blueberries
1 lb blackberries
1 lb Mascarpone cheese
4 organic free-range egg yolks
5 tbsp granulated sugar
3/4 cup organic heavy cream
4 tbsp honey (plus more to taste)
Juice of 2 lemons
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp water
Basil leaves (for garnish)
Lilac flowers (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Berry Sauce:
    In a small saucepan, combine the blackberries, blueberries, lemon juice, vanilla extract, honey, and water.
    Simmer over a low flame, covered, for a few minutes until the blueberries have popped. Allow to cool, then strain to separate the liquid from the solids.
  2. Whip the Cream:
    Whip the heavy cream with 1 tbsp of granulated sugar using a mixer with a whisk attachment until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until needed.
  3. Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture:
    In a different bowl, cream the egg yolks with the remaining granulated sugar until smooth.
    Gradually add the Mascarpone cheese until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine Whipped Cream and Mascarpone:
    Gently fold the chilled whipped cream into the Mascarpone mixture using a spatula.
    Divide this mixture into two bowls. Fold the solid berries into half of the Mascarpone mixture and set aside.
  5. Assemble the Tiramisu:
    Prepare 4 medium-sized glasses or a single trifle dish.
    Dip ladyfingers briefly in the berry sauce and layer them at the bottom of your chosen dish.
    Add a layer of the berry Mascarpone mixture followed by a layer of the plain Mascarpone mixture. Repeat the layering until all ingredients are used.
    Refrigerate for a few hours, or until the tiramisu sets.
  6. Garnish and Serve:
    Serve the tiramisu chilled, garnished with fresh blackberries, basil leaves, and optional lilac blossoms for a decorative touch
