Tiramisu Ingredients
Method
Tiramisu Directions
- 1
Prepare the Coffee Mixture
Brew a strong cup of coffee and allow it to cool. Once cooled, pour it into a shallow dish.
- 2
Dip the Ladyfingers
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee, making sure not to soak them for too long to avoid sogginess. Lay them in a single layer in your serving dish.

Make the Mascarpone Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

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

Layer the Tiramisu
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the layer of ladyfingers. Repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.

Serve
Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and sprinkle with shaved dark chocolate. Slice and enjoy your homemade tiramisu!
