For the Tiramisu

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Whip the Cream

    In a large mixing bowl, add the heavy cream and whip it with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy. This should take about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Mascarpone

    Gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the egg yolk mixture until well combined and smooth.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Whipped Cream

    Carefully fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully integrated, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

    In a shallow dish, combine the cooled espresso coffee and coffee liqueur (if using). Stir to mix.

  6. 6

    Dip the Ladyfingers

    Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, making sure not to soak them. Place a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom of a serving dish.

  7. 7

    Layer the Mixture

    Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the layer of ladyfingers, smoothing it out with a spatula.

  8. 8

    Repeat Layers

    Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers on top of the mascarpone mixture, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture. Smooth the top with a spatula.

  9. 9

    Chill the Tiramisu

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

  10. 10

    Serve

    Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder. Cut into squares and enjoy!
