Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Make the Cream Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.

  3. 3

    Whip the Cream

    In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee mixture for a few seconds, then layer them in a serving dish. Spread half of the cream mixture over the ladyfingers.

  5. 5

    Layering

    Repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining cream mixture.

  6. 6

    Chill

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

  7. 7

    Serve

    Before serving, dust with cocoa powder on top for garnish and enjoy your homemade tiramisu!
