Method

Preparation of Espresso

  1. 1

    Brew Espresso

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

Filling Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix Mascarpone Filling

    In a large bowl, whisk together 500 grams of mascarpone cheese, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.

  2. 3

    Whip Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

  3. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.

  4. 5

    Prepare Egg Yolks

    In another bowl, whisk 3 egg yolks until pale and creamy. Gradually fold the egg yolks into the mascarpone and cream mixture until well incorporated.

Assembling the Tiramisu

  1. 6

    Dip Ladyfingers

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

  2. 7

    Layer the Tiramisu

    In a rectangular dish, place a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone filling over the ladyfingers.

  3. 8

    Repeat Layers

    Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers on top of the filling, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.

Final Touches

  1. 9

    Chill Tiramisu

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

  2. 10

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and sprinkle with 50 grams of dark chocolate shavings.
