Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds fresh strawberries, washed, hulled and chopped
- 12 ounces fresh blueberries, washed and dried
- 12 ounces raspberries, washed and dried
- 3/4 cup (155g) sugar
- 4 tablespoons (60ml) amaretto liqueur, optional
- 3/4 to 1 cup (180-240ml) water
- 6 large egg yolks
- 1 cup (207g) sugar
- 1 1/4 cups (285g) mascarpone cheese
- 1 3/4 cups (420ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 (17.5 ounce) package ladyfingers
- freeze dried berries, optional
- 1 1/4 cups (300ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1/2 cup (58g) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the berries with 3/4 cup sugar, ensuring all the fruit is coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow the berries to release their juices.
- After refrigerating, drain the juices into a measuring cup, ensuring you have at least 1 cup. If not, let the fruit rest longer for more juice.
- If using amaretto, add it to the fruit juice. Then, mix in enough water to make a total of 2 cups of liquid.
Notes
For a more intense fruit flavor, allow the berries to sit longer in the sugar to draw out the juices.
You can use a variety of berries based on your preference or availability.
For an alcohol-free version, simply skip the amaretto and increase the water as needed.
