Tiramisu Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the coffee mixture

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

  2. 2

    Make the mascarpone filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Dip the ladyfingers

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.

  4. 4

    Layer the tiramisu

    In a rectangular dish, layer half of the soaked ladyfingers, then half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone.

  5. 5

    Chill and serve

    Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Before serving, dust with cocoa powder.
