                                        Instructions
Step 1
Start by heating 300 ml of mandarin juice in a saucepan until it begins to boil. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 eggs and 10 g of corn starch.
Once the juice is boiling, remove the saucepan from the heat. While continuously whisking, slowly pour in the egg mixture into the saucepan. Return it to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
Finally, stir in 50 g of unsalted butter and 90 g of white chocolate until fully melted. Allow the curd to cool completely, and if there are any lumps, strain it through a sieve.
Step 2
In a new saucepan, combine 200 ml of water, 80 g of sugar, 50 ml of mandarin juice, and 50 ml of lemon juice. Bring to a gentle boil.
Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes over medium heat. Once done, remove from the heat and allow it to cool entirely.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine 400 g of mascarpone cheese, 350 ml of heavy cream, 80-90 g of powdered sugar, and the zest of 1 lemon.
Using a mixer, whip the mixture on high speed until stiff peaks form, ensuring it is well combined and fluffy.
Step 4
Begin by dipping the ladyfinger cookies in the prepared syrup, ensuring they are soaked but not too soggy. Arrange the soaked cookies at the bottom of your serving dish.
Spread a layer of the mandarin curd over the ladyfingers, followed by a layer of the mascarpone cream. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with the cream on top.
Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 2-3 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set perfectly.
Servings
Imagine this: a beautiful Mandarin Tiramisu chilled to perfection, served on a warm summer evening. 🌞 It pairs beautifully with fresh mint leaves and a sprinkle of lemon zest on top for an extra kick of color and flavor.
For a delightful twist, try serving it with a side of mascarpone whipped cream and a drizzle of your homemade mandarin syrup. This ensures that each bite bursts with flavor! 🍊
Not only does this dessert suit festive occasions, but it’s also a wonderful treat for casual gatherings. You could even pack it into individual jars for a picnic or outdoor gathering, making it easy to enjoy while soaking up the sun. 🍽️✨
Equipment
Use medium and large mixing bowls to combine ingredients smoothly. Glass or stainless steel bowls are great as they keep the mixture cool.
A hand whisk or an electric mixer works wonders. An electric mixer and whisk attachment will save you time when whipping cream to perfection!

If you’re looking for a gluten-free option, simply swap out the savoiardi biscuits for gluten-free ladyfingers. They provide the same delightful texture without depriving your gluten-sensitive friends! 🍞✌️
For a plant-based twist, substitute traditional mascarpone with a blend of vegan cream cheese and whipped coconut cream. Use a plant-based syrup and make sure your biscuits are vegan-friendly for the ultimate vegan indulgence! 🌱🍰
Faq
- What can I do if my cream doesn't whip properly?
Ensure your mixing bowl and beaters are cold, and check your cream’s fat content. A higher fat cream (over 33%) whips more easily.
 - How long should I chill the tiramisu before serving?
Chilling for at least 2-3 hours allows the flavors to meld beautifully. Overnight is even better for perfect consistency!
 - Can I use other fruits for the curd?
Absolutely! You can try lemon, passionfruit, or even berry curds for a different flavor profile.
 - How do I prevent the bottom layer from becoming soggy during assembly?
Quickly dipping the ladyfingers in syrup ensures they absorb just enough flavor without becoming overly soggy.
 - Can I freeze the assembled tiramisu?
While you can freeze it, it's best enjoyed fresh. If you do freeze it, allow it to thaw in the fridge for several hours before serving.
 - What should I do if my mandarin curd is too runny?
Heat it gently on the stove while whisking continuously until it thickens. Adding a small amount of cornstarch slurry can also help.
