Provided by Food Network

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 egg whites
5 tablespoons/71 g sugar, plus extra if desired
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 cups/470 ml whipping cream
1 cup/235 ml limoncello liqueur (lemon-flavored), plus an extra splash
Freshly grated zest of 1 lemon, plus more for sprinkling
1 cup/235 ml water
40 Italian 'Savoiardi' lady finger cookies
Lemon-infused white chocolate, chopped, for topping

Steps:

  • In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites, sugar, and lemon juice together until you achieve white fluffy peaks.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the whipping cream until fluffy. Fold in the egg white mixture, a splash of limoncello, the lemon zest and carefully fold into the whipping cream.
  • In another bowl, combine 1 cup limoncello with water. Add more water (to dilute the limoncello) and sugar, if desired.
  • Lightly dip both sides of each lady finger cookie in the limoncello mixture. The exterior of the cookie should be wet while the interior should remain somewhat dry. Arrange the dipped cookies in one tightly packed layer on the bottom of a cake pan. Spread 1/2 of the cream mixture evenly over the cookies, making sure the cookies are completely covered. Add a second layer of dipped lady fingers, and then evenly spread the remaining cream mixture on top. Sprinkle the top with lemon zest and lemon-infused white chocolate.
  • Unlike the traditional tiramisu, this version can be served immediately.

Time 6h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 ounces mascarpone
One 11- to 12-ounce jar lemon curd
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest, plus more for sprinkling
3/4 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup limoncello
1 tablespoon lemon juice
One 7-ounce package ladyfingers, such as Savoiardi

Steps:

  • Put the mascarpone, lemon curd, sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat the cream until it holds medium-stiff peaks. Mix a third of the cream into the mascarpone mixture to lighten it, then fold in the remaining cream.
  • Stir together the limoncello, lemon juice and 1/4 cup water in a shallow bowl. Working one at a time, quickly dip half of the ladyfingers in the liquid, turning to coat both sides, and arrange in an even layer in an 8-inch glass baking dish. Spread half of the cream mixture over the ladyfingers and smooth evenly. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and the rest of the cream. Sprinkle some lemon zest over the top, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours and preferably overnight.
