Tiramisu Ingredients

Method

Tiramisu Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

    Brew the espresso and let it cool. If using, mix in the coffee liqueur.

  2. 2

    Make the Cream Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until smooth.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture for a couple of seconds, ensuring they soak but do not become too soggy. Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a baking dish. Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and top with the remaining mascarpone mixture.

  4. 4

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and sprinkle with shaved dark chocolate.
