Ingredients
Scale
Rose Milk Mixture
- 1 cup rose syrup (Opt for Rooh Afza for an authentic taste)
- 1 cup full fat milk (Using whole milk is key for the best flavor)
- 1 teaspoon rose water (A drop of rose essence can substitute if needed)
Mascarpone Mixture
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese (Ensure it’s very cold for easy whipping)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (Confectioners’ sugar works best)
- A few drops rose essence (Use sparingly to avoid overpowering)
Whipped Cream
- 1 cup heavy cream (Chilling before use is essential)
- Additional powdered sugar for whipping (quantity incorporated into instructions)
Other Ingredients
- 1 pack ladyfinger cookies (These give structure)
- Food grade rose buds (as needed for garnish)
- Silvered pistachios (as needed for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Rose Milk Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of rose syrup, 1 cup of full fat milk, and 1 teaspoon of rose water. Whisk the ingredients until smooth and homogeneous. Set aside this aromatic mixture for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Make Mascarpone Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup of very cold mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and a few drops of rose essence. Beat the mixture until it becomes smooth, creamy, and uniform in texture.
- Whip the Cream: In another chilled bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with a small amount of powdered sugar (approximately 2 tablespoons) until soft peaks form. This will add lightness and creaminess to the tiramisu layers.
- Soak Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger cookie into the rose milk mixture, ensuring they absorb some liquid but do not become soggy. Arrange a single layer of these soaked ladyfingers in an 8×8-inch dish to form the base layer.
- Layer Mascarpone and Ladyfingers: Spread half of the whipped mascarpone mixture evenly over the first ladyfinger layer. Then dip the remaining ladyfingers in the rose milk mixture and place them on top of the mascarpone layer in another single layer. Spread the remaining mascarpone mixture over this second layer of ladyfingers.
- Chill the Dessert: Cover the assembled tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight. This resting period allows the flavors to fully develop and the dessert to set properly.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the tiramisu from the refrigerator. Optionally pipe additional whipped cream on top for decoration. Garnish with food grade rose buds and silvered pistachios to enhance visual appeal and add texture before serving.
Notes
- Ensure mascarpone cheese and heavy cream are very cold for best whipping results.
- Do not soak ladyfingers too long in the rose milk mixture to prevent sogginess.
- Refrigerating overnight improves flavor and texture.
- Use food grade rose buds and silvered pistachios for safe and attractive garnishing.
- Adjust rose essence to taste, as it can be potent.
