Description

Coconut Tiramisu with Raffaello and Hazelnut Garnish is a dreamy no-bake dessert that gives a tropical twist to classic tiramisu. Layers of mascarpone, coconut cream, and soft ladyfingers are finished with crushed Raffaello truffles and toasted hazelnuts for an elegant, indulgent treat.

Perfect for holidays, dinner parties, or make-ahead desserts, this coconut tiramisu is rich yet light, creamy without being heavy, and guaranteed to impress.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Cream Layers

  • 250 g mascarpone cheese
  • 200 ml coconut cream, chilled
  • 150 ml heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Base

  • 20–24 ladyfinger biscuits
  • 200 ml coconut milk (for soaking)
  • Optional: splash of coconut rum or amaretto

For Garnish

  • 6–8 Raffaello truffles, crushed
  • 1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts, chopped
  • Shredded coconut or white chocolate curls (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chill ingredients: Make sure coconut cream and whipping cream are well chilled.
  2. Whip cream: Beat coconut cream, heavy cream, and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
  3. Add mascarpone: Gently beat in mascarpone and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  4. Soak ladyfingers: Quickly dip ladyfingers into coconut milk (and rum if using).
  5. Layer: Arrange half of the ladyfingers in a dish, spread half the cream mixture on top. Repeat layers.
  6. Garnish: Top with crushed Raffaello truffles, toasted hazelnuts, and optional coconut or chocolate.
  7. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat mascarpone for the best texture.
  • Do not over-soak ladyfingers to avoid sogginess.
  • Chilling overnight gives the best flavor and structure.
  • Skip alcohol for a kid-friendly version.
  • Freshly toasted hazelnuts add the best crunch and aroma.
