If you love matcha and tiramisu as much as I do, this recipe will quickly become your new favorite. It uses ceremonial grade matcha for a rich, earthy flavor and skips the raw eggs found in traditional versions, making it both safer and incredibly easy to put together.

Since this is a no bake recipe, the fridge does all the hard work for you. It is the perfect dessert to make a day ahead when you have guests coming over, and the bright green matcha against the red strawberries makes for such a stunning presentation.

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces mascarpone cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ceremonial grade matcha powder, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar for the soak
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder for the soak
  • 24 to 30 Savoiardi ladyfingers
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup strawberry sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix the room temperature mascarpone and sugar until smooth. Gently stir in the matcha powder and vanilla extract.

  2. 2

    Slowly whisk in the heavy whipping cream until the mixture thickens and reaches medium peaks.

  3. 3

    In a shallow bowl, whisk together the hot water, sugar, and matcha powder for the soak until dissolved and slightly frothy.

  4. 4

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the matcha soak for just one or two seconds so they absorb flavor without becoming mushy.

  5. 5

    Arrange a single layer of dipped ladyfingers in the bottom of your serving dish.

  6. 6

    Add a layer of sliced strawberries over the cookies, then spread a generous layer of the matcha mascarpone cream on top. Drizzle with a little strawberry sauce.

  7. 7

    Repeat these layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of cream and strawberry sauce.

  8. 8

    Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, though overnight is best for the perfect texture.

  9. 9

    Right before you are ready to serve, dust the top with a little extra matcha powder.

💡 Tips

Store your leftovers in the refrigerator covered tightly for up to three days. Make sure to use hard, dry Savoiardi ladyfingers rather than the soft sponge kind to keep the texture just right. If you want a really clean look, wait to dust the top with matcha until the very last second before bringing it to the table.
