Plumisu

30 minutes
Serves 8
Dessert
Our take on the traditional tiramisu, using juicy, sticky, Kentish plums from a selection of our favourite suppliers (which are bang in season), Beeble honey liqueur or a lovely Amaretto, lashings of mascarpone, a wallop of double cream, sprinkles of dark chocolate and, ta dah….  PLUMISU!

Instructions

Mix plums with jam and as much lemon zest as you desire and set aside.

Add cream, mascarpone, sugar and marsala to a large bowl and whisk on medium speed until very thick.

Pour the Coxy’s liqueur into a bowl and dip each savoiardo finger on both sides until soaked, but not too wet.

Add a layer of soaked biscuits to a glass dish and proceed to top with plums and then a layer of creamy mixture.

Add another layer in the same way and sprinkle with grated chocolate.

Leave to rest in the fridge - it can be eaten after an hour or, better yet, the next day when everything has had time to soak up and soften.
