Ingredients
Scale
- 260 ml double cream (32% fat)
- 300 g fresh mascarpone cheese
- 300 g ladyfingers (savoiardi)
- 100 g fine sugar
- 250 ml freshly brewed espresso coffee, cooled
- 50 ml Marsala wine (optional)
- 60 g unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
-
Whip the Cream:
- In a mixing bowl, whip cold double cream on low speed, gradually increasing to medium.
- Beat for about 5 minutes until thick, fluffy peaks form. Set aside in the fridge.
- Prepare the Mascarpone Cream:
- In another bowl, blend mascarpone cheese and sugar on low speed for 3 minutes.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream in three batches using a spatula, ensuring a light, airy texture.
-
Dip the Ladyfingers:
- Mix cooled espresso with Marsala wine (if using).
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger for 1 second per side—do not oversoak!
- Arrange a single layer in a 6×8-inch dish, breaking them if needed.
-
Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Repeat with a second layer of dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone cream.
-
Chill & Finish:
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best for flavor).
- Before serving, dust with cocoa powder and enjoy!
Notes
- Use high-quality mascarpone for the creamiest texture.
- To make it alcohol-free, replace Marsala wine with more coffee or milk.
- Tiramisu tastes even better the next day, so it’s great for making ahead!
- Store in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for up to a month.
