Whether you are in the swing of summer or if it is hopefully peaking on the horizon of spring, this Frozen Limoncello Tiramisu is so worth making this weekend or save this recipe for when the time comes for your first alfresco summer lunch of the season. Unless of course, we are birds of the same feather and having a spoonful of ice cream is welcome any day, any time, any season.
This Frozen Limoncello Tiramisu is my citrusy version of the Frozen Tiramisu I posted back in 2017, using store bought ice cream. For this Limoncello Tiramisu I made Nigella’s no churn ice cream which is super easy to make, replaced the coffee for dipping with limoncello and added some grated lemon zest to the ice cream for a citrus punch. Freeze it all in a loaf tin overnight and trust me, it is happy faces all round.
All you need for the no churn ice cream is double cream and condensed milk. Beat the cream to soft peaks, add the condensed milk and whip until thick and airy. I always add a generous pinch of salt and a splash of my homemade vanilla extract. And that is all there is to it!
Tiramisu means “pick me up” in Italian and I hope this recipe for Frozen Limoncello Tiramisu will do the same!
