Tiramisu Ingredients

Method

Tiramisu Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

    Brew the espresso coffee and let it cool. Once cooled, mix in a tablespoon of sugar and set aside.

  2. 2

    Whip the Cream

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

  3. 3

    Combine Mascarpone

    In another bowl, gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the whipped cream until fully combined and smooth.

  4. 4

    Assemble Tiramisu

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee mixture and layer them at the bottom of a serving dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, then repeat the layers with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.

  5. 5

    Chill

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

  6. 6

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and sprinkle with dark chocolate shavings for garnish.
