Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Mascarpone cheese
- 1.5 cups Heavy cream
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 4 large Egg yolks
- 0.5 cups Godiva chocolate liqueur
- 1 cup Espresso or strong coffee (cooled)
- 24 pieces Ladyfingers (Savoiardi)
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 ounces Dark chocolate (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and granulated sugar together until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Place the bowl with the egg mixture over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) and whisk constantly for 5-7 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
In another large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks using an electric mixer. Set aside.
Fold the mascarpone cheese into the egg mixture until smooth. Add the Godiva chocolate liqueur and mix until well incorporated.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the cream. This is your tiramisu cream.
Combine the espresso or coffee and an additional 2 tablespoons of Godiva liqueur (optional) in a shallow dish or bowl.
Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for about 2 seconds per side, ensuring they are moist but not soggy.
Arrange a layer of dipped ladyfingers into the bottom of a 9x9-inch dish or similar-sized serving dish.
Spread half of the tiramisu cream evenly over the ladyfingers.
Repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining tiramisu cream.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Just before serving, sift the cocoa powder evenly over the top of the tiramisu. If desired, shave or grate the dark chocolate on top for an extra touch of elegance.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your rich and luxurious Godiva Tiramisu!
