If you've ever wanted to make tiramisu but felt nervous about the raw eggs, this Creamy Mango Tiramisu is for you! You've got creamy mascarpone filling and mango-dipped ladyfingers. And the best part is, only 15 minutes of prep!
Add the mascarpone cheese to a large mixing bowl. Pour in the condensed milk and whisk them together for about 1 minute until the mixture is completely smooth, creamy, and lump-free. Don't rush this step, any lumps here will carry through to the final filling.
16 oz mascarpone cheese, ½ can sweetened condensed milk
Whip the cream
In a separate clean bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer starting on medium speed, then increasing to high. Whip until stiff peaks form. When you lift the whisk, the cream should hold a firm peak without drooping. This is what gives the tiramisu its light, mousse-like texture so don't stop too early.
1½ cups heavy cream
Scoop about ⅓ of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture and fold it in to loosen the base. Then add the remaining whipped cream in two additions, folding gently each time with a rubber spatula. Use slow, sweeping motions from the bottom of the bowl up and over. Stop as soon as it's combined, overmixing will deflate the cream and make your filling dense.
Add the mango
Pour the fresh mango pulp into the filling and fold gently until just incorporated. Set the filling aside.

Dip the ladyfingers
In a shallow dish wide enough to fit a ladyfinger lengthwise, whisk together 2 tablespoon of mango pulp and 1½ cups of milk until combined. Working one at a time, dip each ladyfinger into the mixture for exactly 4 seconds, flipping halfway through so both sides absorb evenly. Don't soak them longer than that. They will continue absorbing liquid as the tiramisu chills, and over-soaked ladyfingers will turn the base soggy.
16 ladyfingers, 1.5 cups milk
Layer the tiramisu
Arrange the dipped ladyfingers in a single snug layer across the bottom of your serving dish. If needed, break a few ladyfingers to fill any gaps.
Spoon half of the mango mascarpone filling over the ladyfinger layer. Use an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it into an even, smooth layer all the way to the edges.
Add your second layer of dipped ladyfingers directly on top of the filling, pressing them down very gently so they sit flat.
Spoon the remaining filling over the second ladyfinger layer and smooth the top as evenly as possible. This is the surface everyone will see, so take your time here.
Chill
Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it gently against the surface of the filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Overnight is strongly recommended, the ladyfingers soften to a perfect custardy texture and the layers set up beautifully.
Top and serve
Just before serving, pour the remaining 1 cup of mango pulp over the top of the tiramisu and spread it gently into an even layer. Scatter the chopped fresh mango over the surface. Slice and serve immediately straight from the fridge.
