Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml espresso or strong coffee
- 60 ml coffee liqueur
- 120 grams dark chocolate, chopped
- 250 grams mascarpone cheese
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 80 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 200 grams ladyfingers
- 30 grams dark chocolate shavings
Instructions
Brew the espresso or strong coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature. Mix it with the coffee liqueur in a shallow dish. Set aside.
Melt the chopped dark chocolate using a double boiler or in a microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the melted chocolate and continue whisking until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mascarpone mixture until evenly combined and smooth.
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso-coffee liqueur mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
Arrange half of the soaked ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) dish.
Spread half of the chocolate mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out with a spatula.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining ladyfingers and chocolate mascarpone mixture.
Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder using a fine sieve and sprinkle with dark chocolate shavings.
Slice into squares and serve chilled.
