Biscotti

7.05 oz (200 g) Biscotti

1.01 cup (240 ml) Espresso coffee, brewed

1/4 cup (60 ml) Dark rum

Mascarpone Custard

1 1/8 lb (500 g) Mascarpone cheese

1.01 cup (240 ml) Heavy cream

3 1/2 oz (100 g) sugar

1 tsp Watkins vanilla extract

4 large Egg yolks

Garnish

2 tbs Cocoa powder

1 3/4 oz (50 g) Dark chocolate shavings

Method

Prepare Biscotti

Dip Biscotti

In a shallow dish, combine brewed espresso and dark rum. Dip each biscotti in the mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds. Layer the dipped biscotti in a rectangular dish.

Make Mascarpone Custard

Whip Cream

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.

Prepare Egg Mixture

In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy. Add mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

Combine Mixtures

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

Assemble Tiramisu

Layer Tiramisu

Spread a layer of the mascarpone custard over the soaked biscotti. Repeat the process, layering the dipped biscotti and custard until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of custard on top.

Chill and Serve

Refrigerate

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.

Garnish and Serve

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