Instructions
- Begin by draining the canned pineapple from its syrup and cutting it into small pieces. Set aside 1/3 of the pineapple cubes and blend them into a smooth puree using an immersion blender.
- Grate the zest from the lime to add a refreshing citrus note to your tiramisu.
- In a rectangular baking dish (approximately 22.5×14.5 cm), lay out a layer of ladyfingers. Carefully arrange the pineapple cubes over the ladyfingers, ensuring an even spread.
- Next, prepare the mascarpone cream by whisking together the mascarpone cheese and the blended pineapple puree until smooth and creamy. Spread this mixture over the pineapple layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
- Finish the dessert by dusting the top with unsweetened cocoa powder for a rich, bitter contrast to the sweetness of the pineapple.
- Place the pineapple tiramisu in the fridge and let it chill for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Once chilled, your delightful Pineapple Tiramisu is ready to be served. Enjoy this tropical twist on the classic Italian dessert!
This easy-to-make dessert combines the creaminess of mascarpone with the fresh tang of pineapple and the lightness of ladyfingers, making it a perfect choice for a summer treat or a special occasion.
