Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Whip the Cream

    In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

  3. 3

    Mix Mascarpone

    In another bowl, combine mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well blended.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tiramisu

    Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso mixture for a few seconds, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Layer half of the ladyfingers in a rectangular dish. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone.

  5. 5

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder.
