Learn how to make Limoncello Tiramisu in a few simple steps. You’ll dip crisp Italian ladyfingers into a Limoncello-spiked syrup, whip up a light mascarpone cream with egg yolks, lemon zest, and homemade vanilla, and fold in fluffy whipped egg whites for the ultimate texture.
Layer it all up, chill overnight, and you’ve got a bright, fresh twist on classic tiramisu. I’ll show you how to build it, set it up for easy serving, and finish it with a simple dusting of powdered sugar.
If you want a faster version, it can chill for two hours but overnight gives the best flavor and texture. This Lemoncello Tiramisu recipe is a great make-ahead dessert for any gathering.
Recipe Ingredients:
Italian ladyfingers
1/2 cup simple syrup
1/4 cup Italian Limoncello
