Strawberry tiramisu recipe – the healthiest Italian tiramisu

Tiramisu is an amazing Italian dessert, probably the most known over the world. Strawberry tiramisu recipe is a particular version that I developed over time. It is fragrant and delicious as the traditional recipe but it is lighter and perfect for kids, because they can get the pleasure of the dessert but eating a lot of fruits.

The recipe is very easy and you will be able to surprise your guests with a very special dish. Also, it is a must in my house for Easter.

The must to pair with this dish is a Italian spumante, a sparkling white wine coming from the north of Italy as Cuvée Annamaria Clementi!
