Peach Tiramisu is a light and tasty version of my favorite dessert, I hope you enjoy it!
I want to share this delicious dessert I made to celebrate Labor Day. After making a small tiramisu for a friend, I had to decide what to do with the leftover cream.
The peaches this season have been so juicy and so sweet, and I knew right away that I wanted to incorporate those delicious peaches into my dessert. I also knew that it needed a little color, and as luck would have it I had a flat of perfect red raspberries in the fridge. It was a match made in heaven, sweet juicy peaches, red ripe raspberries and luscious Tiramisu cream!
Of course, I had to use a few ladyfingers just to make it official, but rather than place them in the layers, I thought a crumble with a bit of a crunch would be a nice touch!
I see so many Tiramisu recipes out there, and most of them are not really A Classical Tiramisu. It takes a little time to make this dessert properly, but the results are well worth the effort. I promise you a dessert that will put your favorite Italian restaurant to shame. If you would like to make the classical version, here is my amazing tiramisu recipe.
Although this is not a classical Tiramisu, it truly is a spectacular dessert. It would make a great dessert for your next dinner party or just to make any night a special occasion. Try it with blackberries and nectarines, or a mixture of fresh berries, but anyway you serve it, it will be delicious

- In a separate bowl, whip cream to stiff peaks.
- Gently fold the whipped cream in the mascarpone sabayon mixture and set aside
- Peel and dice peaches
Assembly
- In the bottom of each dessert glass, place a layer of peaches.
- Spoon a layer of tiramisu cream over top of the peaches
- Make a ring of raspberries around the glass and fill the center with more peaches.
- Spoon another layer of tiramisu cream over top of the peaches and raspberries, coming to the top of the glass.
- Garnish the dessert with more peaches a raspberry and ladyfinger crumbles.
- Place half of a lady finger into the glass with most of it sticking out.

This really does look and sound fantastic. How does it differ from a trifle? I’m willing to dive in no matter what it’s called, actually.
