How to make: an Aperol Tiramisu

Italian purists, look away! 

We love an Aperol spritz and tiramisu as much as the next person… so we put them together in a fancy lil dessert. Genius, right? We thought so. If you’re vibing something fresh, sweet and Mediterranean, here’s the perfect treat to whip up.

    • 150ml Aperol
    • 50ml white wine
    • 350g sugar
    • 150ml water
    • 200ml orange juice
    • 30g corn starch
    • 80g butter
    • 2 egg yolks
    • 500g mascarpone
    • 200g heavy cream 
    • 250g ladyfinger biscuits
    • Zest of an orange 
    • Mint (for garnish) 
    • 1
      Prep all your ingredients. Zest your orange, measure the sugar - get everything in order because trust us, it’s going to make your life a WHOLE lot easier.

      In a saucepan, start making your syrup. Add 50ml of Aperol, 50ml white wine, 100ml water and 50g of sugar (saving the rest for later). Bring all the ingredients to a boil and let simmer until the sugar is dissolved. Pour into a bowl and set aside. 
    • 3
      Now for the orange topping. You’ll need to put your juice, egg yolks, butter, the remaining water, the rest of your Aperol and 150g of sugar in a saucepan. Throw in that corn starch and stir over a medium heat. It should be the same texture as gravy (even a smidge thicker). Set aside.
    • 4
      In a big bowl, pour out your heavy cream, the remaining sugar, the mascarpone and orange zest. Beat until stiff peaks form. 
    • 5
      Now for the fun part. Dip each ladyfinger into the syrup until lightly soaked, and place in a rectangle dish until there’s a full layer of biccies. Then, cover with the cream mixture. Keep repeating until all the ladyfingers are used up.
    • 6
      When you’ve finished layering, smooth out the top to form a final layer of cream. 
    • 7
      Pour over your orange topping and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until fully set. 
    • 8
      Top with mint, serve and start dreaming about your own cake shop on the Amalfi Coast, bc you’re officially a certified pastry chef.

Look, we know you saw the headline, so we don’t need to spell it out… do we? The warm sun, the coastal breeze, the old people shouting at each other… there really is no place like Italy. But there’s also a thing called cozzie livs that makes going to Italy a bit tricky. So, why not bring it to you with this absolutely beaut spin on a tiramisu.
