Tiramisu Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Espresso

    Brew 1 cup of strong espresso and let it cool to room temperature.

  2. 2

    Make the Mascarpone Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the Mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer to whip until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    Dip the Ladyfingers

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso, ensuring they are coated but not soggy.

  4. 4

    Layer the Tiramisu

    In a rectangular dish, create a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the Mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining Mascarpone mixture on top.

  5. 5

    Chill

    Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and sprinkle with dark chocolate shavings. Cut into squares and enjoy!
