Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Ladyfingers
- 2 cups Coffee
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 16 ounces Mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher), grated
Instructions
Start by brewing 2 cups of strong coffee. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine 16 ounces of mascarpone cheese with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully incorporated.
Quickly dip each of the 24 ladyfingers into the coffee mixture, ensuring each side is coated, but do not soak them.
Arrange a single layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom of an 8x8 inch dish.
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing out evenly.
Sift 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder over the mascarpone layer.
Repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.
Finish by sifting the remaining cocoa powder and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of grated dark chocolate over the top.
Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
