Ingredients

No Bake Lemon Tres Leches

  • 6oz Mascarpone Cheese
  • 1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 1/4 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla
  • 2-7oz Bags Lady Fingers
  • Store Bought Lemon Curd (I used Stonewall)

Milk Blend

  • 1 1/2 Cups Whole Milk
  • 1 Cup Evaporated Milk
  • 1 Can Condensed Milk
  • 1/2 Tsp Vanilla

Instructions

  1. Cake will be made in a 9x9 pan.
  2. Begin by preparing the tres leches milk mixture by adding all the ingredients for the milk mixture and whisking until combined set aside while you place the lady fingers on the pan.
  3. Once the milk mixture is prepared fill the bottom of the 9x9 pan with the lady fingers and pour 1/3 of the tres leches mixture.
  4. Next turn the lady fingers around and pour half of the remainning milk mixture and turn them back around.This is to make sure they are soaked on all sides.
  5. Add another row of lady fingers but dip them in the set aside milk mixture one by one then placing them on top of the ones already on the pan making a second row of lady fingers.
  6. Once the second row of lady fingers is complete make the marscapone by placing the mascarpone, heavy whipping cream, sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Using a hand mixer beat on low speed until it begins to mix. Once the mixture begins to thicken bring speed up to Med-High and continue to whisk until it is fluffy. Do not over mix.
  7. Evenly spread the mascarpone over the lady fingers.
  8. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes before adding the lemon curd so the mascarpone sets a bit.
  9. Cover and set in the fridge for atleast 2 hours.
  10. Once ready to serve add some whipped topping (optional) and enjoy!.

TIPS

  1. The mascarpone should only be allowed to room temp for about 20 mins depending on the temp of your home. It should be soft but still have a cool temperature. It is important to allow to soften if not it will not mix well and you will have an unpleasant lumpy mixture.
  2. It takes about 1-2 minutes for the mixture to get to its desired consistency. If you over beat it can get a buttery like texture. It needs to be smooth and have medium peaks.
  3. Tiramisu can be stored for 3-4 days to stay the freshest.
