Method

Tiramisu Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Coffee Mixture

    Brew a strong cup of espresso coffee and let it cool slightly. If using, stir in the coffee liqueur.

  2. 2

    Make the Mascarpone Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. Whip until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Soak Ladyfingers

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger in the espresso mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.

  4. 4

    Layering

    In a rectangular dish, create a layer of soaked ladyfingers. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder. Cut into squares and enjoy your delicious tiramisu!
