Tiramisu Recipe

Tiramisu Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Coffee

   Brew the espresso and let it cool. If you are using coffee liqueur, mix it into the coffee.

2. 2

   Make the Mascarpone Mixture

   In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy. Add the mascarpone cheese and mix until smooth.

3. 3

   Whip the Cream

   In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.

4. 4

   Combine the Mixtures

   In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture as well.

5. 5

   Assemble the Tiramisu

   Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee mixture for just a second to soak. Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in a serving dish, and spread half of the mascarpone mixture on top. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.

6. 6

   Chill

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

7. 7

   Serve

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