If there's one dessert that perfectly balances elegance with comfort, it's Tiramisu. With layers of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and velvety mascarpone cream, topped with a dusting of cocoa powder, this Italian classic is as indulgent as it is easy to make.
Ingredients:
6 large egg yolks
3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
1 cup (240g) mascarpone cheese, room temperature
2 cups (475ml) strong brewed coffee or espresso, cooled
1/4 cup (60ml) coffee liqueur (optional)
2 packs of ladyfinger biscuits (savoiardi)
Unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Dark chocolate shavings or grated chocolate (optional)
Instructions:
Whisk & Heat:
In a heatproof bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and whisk continuously for 8–10 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove and let cool.
Whip the Cream:
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Combine Cream and Mascarpone:
Gently fold the mascarpone into the cooled yolk mixture, then fold in the whipped cream. The mixture should be smooth and airy.
Dip the Ladyfingers:
Mix the coffee and coffee liqueur (if using) in a shallow dish. Quickly dip each ladyfinger—don’t soak—then layer them in a rectangular or round dish.
Layering:
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped biscuits and top with the remaining cream.
Chill:
Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. The flavors intensify as it rests.
Finish & Serve:
Dust generously with cocoa powder and top with dark chocolate shavings before serving. Optional: Garnish with fresh mint for a pop of color.
Tips:
Use high-quality mascarpone for best flavor.
Don’t over-soak the ladyfingers—they get soggy quickly.
For a kid-friendly version, skip the liqueur.
Tiramisu is perfect for dinner parties or cozy nights in—it never fails to impress. Enjoy a slice of Italy with each spoonful!
