A delicate and fragrant Rose Tiramisu that combines the classic Italian dessert with the floral notes of rosewater, layered with mascarpone cream and ladyfingers soaked in rose-infused milk. Perfect for special occasions or a romantic treat.

Ingredients

Cream Layer

  • 8 oz (225 g) mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream, chilled
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp rosewater (adjust to taste)

Layers

  • 20–24 ladyfingers (savoiardi biscuits)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) warm milk
  • 1 tbsp rosewater

Decoration

  • Edible rose petals
  • Dried rosebuds
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mascarpone Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the mascarpone cheese until smooth to achieve a creamy base.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form, making sure the cream is light and fluffy.
  3. Combine Cream and Mascarpone: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese until well combined, creating a smooth and airy mixture.
  4. Add Rosewater: Stir in 2 teaspoons of rosewater into the mascarpone cream mixture, adjusting the amount to your preference for a subtle floral flavor.
  5. Prepare the Soaking Liquid: In a shallow dish, combine the warm milk with 1 tablespoon of rosewater, mixing well to infuse the milk with the rose flavor.
  6. Soak Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the rose-infused milk for 1–2 seconds; be careful not to soak them too long to avoid sogginess.
  7. First Layer Assembly: Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers evenly in an 8×8-inch dish or individual serving glasses.
  8. Spread Cream Layer: Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture evenly over the ladyfingers, smoothing the surface.
  9. Repeat Layers: Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone cream, smoothing the top to finish the dessert.
  10. Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, allowing flavors to meld and the tiramisu to set.
  11. Decorate and Serve: Just before serving, dust the top lightly with powdered sugar and garnish with edible rose petals and dried rosebuds for an elegant finish.

Notes

  • Do not oversoak the ladyfingers to maintain the right texture.
  • Adjust rosewater to taste as it can be potent; less is more if you prefer a subtle flavor.
  • Chilling overnight enhances the flavors and texture better than a shorter refrigeration time.
  • Use fresh, high-quality mascarpone cheese for the best creamy consistency.
  • Edible rose petals and dried rosebuds add a beautiful visual and aromatic touch but are optional.
