Lemon rum Tiramisu in a jar

Since I discovered that the Tiramisu recipe can be prepared easily and in no time, I’ve been fantasizing about what other combination I can use. So this time I’m preparing almost the same cream basis as I did before on https://forkgonewild.com/light-tiramisu/, but with a lemony note, a rum twist to it and a portable storage idea.

Ingredients

  • 100 g ladyfingers
  • 250 g low fat cheese I used Lacteea’s 0.2%
  • 1 packet whip-cream powder
  • 20 g honey
  • 1/2 vanilla pod
  • 150 ml low fat milk 1.5% fat
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 150 ml strong unsweetened coffee
  • 1 tsp strong rum essence
  • 30 g black cocoa

Instructions

  • Mix the coffee with the rum essence and leave to cool completely (if the coffee is still hot).
  • Mix the milk and the whip-cream powder according to the packet instructions.
  • Mix thoroughly the cheese, the vanilla pod seeds, the lemon zest and the honey.
  • Gently mix the whip-cream with the cheese composition.
  • Prepare 5 glass containers/ jars (250 ml capacity each) and put 1 spoon of cream on the bottom of each container.
  • Dip the ladyfingers in the coffee then break them into pieces and lay them in 2 layers in the containers/ jars.
  • Evenly distribute the remaining cream on top of the ladyfingers.
  • Put the cocoa on a sieve and sprinkle the powder on top of the cream in the jars.
  • Put the lid on and put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

  • I used a type of ladyfingers which have a sugar coating to them and since I want to reduce as much as possible the sugar intake, I rubbed the ladyfingers thoroughly to remove the sugar coating.
  • I didn’t have 5 jars at hand in the house and I used 2 jars of 500 ml and a small bowl.
