Dairy-Free Fresh Berry Tiramisu
A dairy-free tiramisu made with layers of whipped cinnamon dairy-free cream cheese and coconut cream, and kahlua coffee soaked lady fingers… topped with fresh mixed berries and mint
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 14 ounce can of coconut cream , (with no preservatives-Savoy is great), refrigerated overnight
- 16 ounces plain dairy-free cream cheese , I used Kite Hill
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon , divided
- 1 1/2 cups dark coffee
- ¾ cup kahlua
- 1 package of lady fingers 7 oz / 200 g
- 2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder , divided
- Fresh berries and mint leaves (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat the coconut cream with a handheld mixer until it forms into a whipped cream texture.
- In a separate bowl, beat the coconut sugar into the cream cheese. Then, fold the cream cheese into the whipped coconut cream along with 2 tsp vanilla and ½ tsp cinnamon. Make sure to gently fold the cream cheese into the coconut cream. Don't mix it or you won't get a creamy whipped texture.
- In a medium bowl, mix the coffee, kahlua, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon together. Dunk 1/2 of the lady fingers into the coffee/ kahlua mixture, making sure the liquid soaks through. I like to hold each lady finger under the coffee/kahlua mixture and count to 2.
- Put 1/2 of the soaked lady fingers on the bottom of a glass 8 x 8 inch or 9 x 9 inch baking dish, then top the lady fingers with 1/2 of the coconut cream/cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle the coconut cream/cream cheese layer with 1 tsp of cocoa powder. Soak the other 1/2 of the lady fingers in the coffee/kahlua mixture, and put on top of the cream layer in the dish. Note:there shouldn’t be much of the coffee/kahlua liquid left. You should use most of it up. I poured some on top of the lady fingers to make sure they were really soaked. Top with the remaining coconut cream/cream cheese mixture. Then sprinkle with 1 tsp cocoa powder, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and a heaping mound of berries and mint leaves. I like using strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight. This tastes best when refrigerated overnight!
