Ingredients
- 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 200 ml Heavy whipping cream
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 250 ml Strong brewed coffee (cooled)
- 20 Ladyfingers (savoiardi biscuits)
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 20 grams Dark chocolate (optional, for shavings)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the mascarpone cheese until smooth.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Step 3
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese until combined and fluffy. Set aside.
Step 4
Pour the cooled coffee into a shallow dish.
Step 5
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee, ensuring they are moist but not soaked to prevent them from falling apart.
Step 6
Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of your serving dish or individual containers.
Step 7
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
Step 8
Repeat the layers with the remaining coffee-dipped ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.
Step 9
Dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder using a fine sieve.
Step 10
Optional: shave dark chocolate over the top for extra indulgence.
Step 11
Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and set.
