Cherry Amaretto Tiramisu

1.

In a bowl, mix the cherry preserves and the amaretto liqueur until well combined. Set this mixture aside.

2.

In another bowl, whisk the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.

3.

Dip the ladyfinger biscuits in the brewed coffee briefly, then lay them in a single layer in a baking dish.

4.

Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the layer of ladyfingers evenly using a spatula or knife.

5.

Drizzle some of the cherry-amaretto mixture on top of the mascarpone layer before adding another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers.

6.

Repeat the layering process with the remaining mascarpone mixture and cherry-amaretto mixture.

7.

Finely grate the dark chocolate over the top of the assembled tiramisu to create a chocolate layer.

8.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the flavors meld together.
