Ingredients:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled
  • 2 tbsp rum or coffee liqueur (optional)
  • 16 ladyfingers
  • Cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions:

Prepare the Cream Mixture:

    • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and granulated sugar until stiff peaks form, creating a light and fluffy texture.
    • Add the mascarpone cheese to the bowl and whisk until well combined and smooth, ensuring a creamy consistency.

    Prepare the Coffee Mixture:

      • In a small bowl, mix together the cooled espresso or coffee with the rum or coffee liqueur (if using), infusing the liquid with rich flavors.

      Assemble the Tiramisu:

        • Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, allowing them to absorb the flavors without becoming too soggy.
        • Place the coffee-dipped ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of an 8×8 inch dish, forming the base of the tiramisu.
        • Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the layer of ladyfingers, creating a smooth and creamy filling.
        • Repeat the process with another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture, building delicious layers of flavor.

        Final Touches:

          • Dust the top of the tiramisu with cocoa powder, adding a hint of bitterness and visual appeal to the dessert.
          • Chill the tiramisu in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together and the dessert to set.

          Serve and Enjoy:

            • Once chilled, slice the tiramisu into portions and serve it chilled, savoring each bite of the creamy, coffee-infused dessert.

            FAQs:

            1. Can I omit the alcohol from the recipe?

            • Yes, you can omit the rum or coffee liqueur if preferred. The tiramisu will still be delicious with just the coffee-infused flavor.

            2. How long does tiramisu last in the refrigerator?

            • Tiramisu can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Be sure to cover it tightly with plastic wrap to prevent any odors from affecting the flavor.

            3. Can I use instant coffee instead of brewed espresso?

            • Yes, you can use instant coffee dissolved in water as a substitute for brewed espresso in this recipe.

            4. Can I make tiramisu ahead of time?

            • Yes, tiramisu is a great dessert to make ahead of time. Prepare it the day before serving and refrigerate it overnight for the best results.

            5. Can I use a different type of liquor in the recipe?
