Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup Espresso or strong brewed coffee, cooled completely
- 12 pieces Ladyfinger cookies
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate shavings (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and creamy.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture with a spatula, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream. Set aside.
Pour the cooled espresso or strong coffee into a shallow bowl. Quickly dip each ladyfinger cookie into the coffee, ensuring it is soaked but not overly saturated.
Break or cut each soaked ladyfinger into smaller pieces to fit them into your serving glasses or parfait cups, creating an even layer at the bottom.
Add a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture over the ladyfingers using a spoon or piping bag. Smooth out the layer for an even finish.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone cream until the glasses are filled or you have two to three layers in each serving.
Dust the top layer with unsweetened cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve. Optionally, add dark chocolate shavings for a decorative touch.
Refrigerate the parfaits for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to firm up.
Serve chilled and enjoy your delightful Tiramisu Parfaits!
