Method
Tiramisu Directions
- 1
Prepare the Coffee
Brew a strong cup of coffee and let it cool. If desired, add coffee liqueur for extra flavor.

Whip the Cream
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add granulated sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.

Mix Mascarpone
In another bowl, gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the whipped cream mixture until well combined and smooth.

Soak the Ladyfingers
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee, making sure not to soak them too long as they can become too soggy.

Layer the Tiramisu
In a serving dish, arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
