Mixed Berry Tiramisu image

Because I love tiramisu, I came up with this deliciously refreshing twist on the traditional coffee-flavored Italian dessert. Fresh softened berries star with crisp ladyfinger cookies and mascarpone cheese. Serve it from a glass bowl or in clear dishes to show off the luscious layers. -Najmussahar Ahmed, Ypsilanti, Michigan

1 10-ounce package frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed
1/4 cup raspberry liqueur
3 4.40-ounce packages Champagne biscuits (4-inch-long ladyfinger-like biscuits)
3 8-ounce containers mascarpone cheese*
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1-pint basket strawberries, hulled
2 1/2-pint baskets raspberries

Steps:

Dip more biscuits in syrup and arrange on bottom of pan, covering completely and trimming to fit.
In bowl, whisk mascarpone with 6 tablespoons sugar and vanilla to blend. Set aside. Thinly slice enough strawberries to measure 1/2 cup. Gently spread half of jam mixture over biscuits in bottom of pan. Spoon half of mascarpone mixture over; smooth top. Sprinkle with sliced strawberries, 1/2 cup fresh raspberries and 1/2 cup blueberries. Dip more biscuits into syrup; arrange over fruit in pan, covering completely and trimming to fit. Gently spread remaining jam mixture over biscuits. Spoon remaining mascarpone mixture over; smooth top. Cover; chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
Release pan sides. Transfer cake to platter. Arrange remaining fresh berries decoratively atop cake and serve.
