Tiramisu Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mascarpone Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

    In a shallow dish, mix the brewed espresso with the dark rum or coffee liqueur if using.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Arrange half of the soaked ladyfingers in a single layer in a 9x13 inch dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.

  4. 4

    Layer and Finish

    Repeat the process with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture. Smooth the top with a spatula, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder for garnish. Cut into squares and enjoy!
