Step by step recipe

1	Sugar and clementine juice Pour 90 g caster sugar and 10 g vanilla sugar into a bowl, then zest 1 or 2 of the clementines on top. Whisk to combine, then cover or wrap and leave to rest for an hour or overnight, to fully flavor the clementine sugar.
2	Cut 6 clementines in 2.
3	Then press them to recover the juice, which you will pour into a bowl with 2 tablespoons Mandarine Napoléon (optional). Set aside.
4	Tiramisu cream In the bowl of a food processor, pour cold 250 g liquid cream and 250 g Mascarpone, 2 eggs and the clementine sugar.
5	Whisk until smooth...
6	...a smooth cream.
7	Assembly In the bottom of a gratin-style dish, place a first layer of cream (a piping bag is ideal for this).
8	Dip a sponge cake into the clementine juice, first on one side and then on the other.
9	Place on top of the cream layer. Do this to cover the entire cream with clementine juice-soaked cookies, laid tightly together.
10	Top with a second layer of cream.
11	Then a second layer of cookies.
12	Finish with a third layer of cream. Your tiramisu is now ready.
13	If you have a little cream and cookies left over, you can also make individual tiramisu in a glass.
14	Just before serving, if possible, sprinkle the top of the tiramisu with 3 tablespoons citrus crunch.

Remarks

Instead of sponge cookies or boudoirs, you can use their Italian version, savoiardi.
For a chocolate touch, sprinkle a little cocoa powder on the bottom of the dish, before the first layer of cream, and on top of the last.
You can also use other citrus fruits in this tiramisu: oranges, grapefruit, mandarins, etc.
For a spicier taste, add 2 tablespoons of Napoleon mandarin to the whipped cream.
