  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee

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

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

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

    Repeat the Layers

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

    Chill the Tiramisu
