Tiramisu Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare Coffee Mixture

    Brew strong coffee and let it cool. Once cooled, pour it into a shallow dish.

  2. 2

    Mix Mascarpone and Cream

    In a large bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Soak Ladyfingers

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer them in a serving dish.

  4. 4

    Layer Tiramisu

    Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the first layer of ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.

  5. 5

    Chill and Serve

    Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and sprinkle with dark chocolate shavings.
