Ingredients
Scale
- Ladyfingers
- 1 cup strong brewed Coffee
- 8 oz Mascarpone cheese
- 2 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Brew a cup of strong coffee and set it aside to cool completely.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until the mixture becomes light, pale, and fluffy.
- Stir in the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract until the filling is smooth and homogenous.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee—just a second on each side—and arrange a single layer in your serving dish.
- Spread an even layer of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone.
- Generously dust the top with cocoa powder. For a refined finish, sift the cocoa to avoid lumps.
- Refrigerate the tiramisu for several hours, or preferably overnight. Serve chilled.
Notes
Use strong brewed coffee or espresso for the best flavor. For a lighter option, fold whipped cream into the mascarpone. Can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.
