Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso

    Brew the espresso coffee and allow it to cool. Mix in the whiskey and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Mascarpone Cream

    In a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until soft peaks form.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Dip each lady finger quickly into the espresso mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer half of them in the bottom of a serving dish.

  4. 4

    Layering

    Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the lady fingers, then repeat with another layer of dipped lady fingers and the remaining mascarpone cream.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Dark Chocolate Dome

    Melt the dark chocolate and pour it over a dome mold. Allow to set in the fridge until hard, then carefully remove from the mold.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with cocoa powder and place the dark chocolate dome on top. Serve chilled.
