Strawberry Tiramisu
We recently had some friends over for dinner and decided to fire up the pizza oven and made four different types of pizzas, two of each. When we have guests over I always like to serve something for dessert, but after enjoying appetizers and then sharing eight pizzas between us, I didn’t want to make anything too heavy. One of my favorite light desserts is Panna Cotta, and I personally could eat that creamy, luscious pudding every night and make it often for guests, but I wanted to try something new for a change. Since it is still strawberry season here in Florida, I decided a Strawberry Tiramisu was in order. Though not terribly light on calories, this dessert is quite light in texture and not overly filling. I combined melted white chocolate, mascarpone, and whipped cream for my creamy layer and flavored it with sweet Marsala wine. I dipped my savoiardi, or lady fingers in orange juice spiked with more Marsala wine
