Tiramisu Recipe

Prepare Espresso

Brew 1 cup of espresso coffee and let it cool. If desired, add the coffee liqueur to the espresso.

Whip Cream

In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Mix Mascarpone

In another bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

Combine Mixtures

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

Soak Lady Fingers

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

Layer Tiramisu

In a rectangular dish, layer half of the soaked lady fingers, followed by half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat the layers.

Chill

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

Serve

Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and cut into squares.
