Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

    In a shallow dish, combine the brewed espresso and rum. Set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Make the Mascarpone Cream

    In a large bowl, beat together the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a serving dish. Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers.

  4. 4

    Repeat the Layers

    Add another layer of the soaked ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone cream.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, or overnight to set.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and drizzle with chocolate sauce.
