For The Lemon Curd:

1. (Skip if using store-bought, but homemade is recommended for best flavour.)

3. Combine lemon juice, sugar, egg yolks, and zest of the lemon in a saucepan.

4. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened (about 10 minutes).

5. Remove from heat, stir in unsalted butter until melted.

6. Strain if desired, then cool and chill in the fridge.

Prepare The Lemon Syrup

For The Whipped Cream Filling

1. Beat mascarpone with confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until smooth.

2. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks.

3. Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until just combined.

How To Assemble The Tiramisu

2. Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish or individual glasses.

3. Spread half the mascarpone filling over the ladyfingers.

4. Top with half the lemon curd.

5. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers, remaining mascarpone filling, and remaining lemon curd.
