Tiramisu – classic Italian coffee flavored dessert. made of ladyfingers (savoiardi biscuits) dipped in coffee syrup, rich mascarpone custard, and whipped cream or whipped egg whites. for this time I chose to make my tiramisu with whipped cream but you can make it with whipped egg whites (like the traditional tiramisu).

Ingredients:
5 large egg yolks
½ cup + 2 Tbsp (125g) Sugar
1 2/3 cups (400ml) Heavy cream, cold
14 oz (425g) Mascarpone cheese, room temperature
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1½ cups brewed espresso
36-40 Savoiardi biscuits (Ladyfingers)
2-3 tablespoons coffee liqueur/marsala/brandy
Cacao for dusting
Directions:
1. Make the coffee syrup: mix hot coffee with the liqueur, pour into a large dish and set aside to cool.
2. Make the filling: place egg yolks and sugar in a large heatproof bowl and set over pot with simmering water (bain marie). Make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. start whisking constantly, until the sugar is dissolved, and the custard thickens. The temperate of egg yolk should reach 154-158ºF (68-70ºC). This step is optional (read notes). remove the bowl from heat and let cool.
3. Add the mascarpone, vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
4. In a separate bowl whip cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture. Then the remaining whipped cream. Set aside.
5. Assemble: dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for 1-2 seconds. Place in the bottom of a 9×13 inch (22X33cm) dish. If needed, break a few ladyfingers to fit them in the dish. Spread half of the cream over the soaked ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of ladyfingers and spread the remaining cream on top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
6. Just before serving, dust with cocoa powder.
Notes:
• Whisking the egg yolks with the sugar over the bain marie is optional. Traditionally, whisking the raw eggs yolks with sugar its totally fine. If you use fresh eggs, there is no danger. But, many people intimidate eating raw eggs so it’s up to you.
• Instead of heavy cream you can use 4 egg whites. Beat to stiff peaks, then fold to the mascarpone mixture. This is the Italian traditional way. But, I find that the version with the heavy cream richer and much better. But, again, it’s up to you.

Whose here after watching the #trump ad on desantis …#puddingfingers 😂😂😂
Peace ✌
I am really interested thanks for sharing just a question please how do I make the lady fingers from? Is it a pastry?
Great recipe, thank you
Do you have to use a glass baking dish… I wanted to make it for a gift/birthday cake.
Follow the directions and it comes out delicious!!!! Thanks for sharing
If it has cream then it's not authentic tiramisu
Is there a recipe for a smaller version? probably like 1/4 of that? would love to make but it seems too much
What are lady figures?
6 hours in fridge is a bit overkill 🙂 2-3 is plenty.
When you said “this step is optional” do you mean cooking egg to 154f ? Can I not simmer it over water? Because I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME get it to that temperature and have it look like that. My egg starts getting puffy and starts getting cooked 😢😮
crème épaisse fraiche? ?? Ou creme liquide svp
Made this tiramisu few days ago for my friends and everyone loved it so muchhh😍😍
Why is my egg and cheese mixture coming out so lumpy?
Grrrr
I made it already with you're recipe, it is DELICIOUS 😍😍🤌🤌 thank you
I always come back with this recipe !! It is the best !! 😍😍 and all my guests adore it Aaa
made this tiramisu twice, always whisked egg whites instead of heavy cream and every time the cream was super fluffy and delicious, i think the heavy cream would be too overwhelming. overall the directions are very straightforward and easy to follow, so thumbs up!
you're unfamiliar, tiramisu is a traditional Italian dessert that consists of espresso (and sometimes rum)-dipped lady finger cookies layered with mascarpone cream (think super velvety cream cheese) and dusted with cocoa powder. Think of it like the classiest, most grown up icebox cake imaginable.
How strong should the coffee be?
I am having Tiramisu with ice cream on the side right now, the tiramisu is so delicious. 🙂 <3
So can i skip wine on the coffee? Coz my husband was a muslim and he dont drink alcohol
I can’t believe I haven’t commented on this before but let me just say this, the first ever Tiramisu I have made was relying on this video alone and it turned out INCREDIBLE!!! Words cannot describe how absolutely delicious and decadent it was. My family loved it so much that it’s become our favorite household dessert.
The instructions can feel laborious and lengthy but it was rather easy to produce the same steps. I have made this about 5-6 times and the results have always consistent and just as good. I started this out when I wasn’t even an experienced baker / cook so in my opinion, this shouldn’t be too difficult for a beginner.
I truly believe no other recipe on the internet for Tiramisu can beat this so if you’re reading this and wondering if you should follow through with this, this is a sign for you to go ahead and make it!
5 / 5 🤍
Looks yummy. What are the option if you don’t like coffee?
THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS IM A BIG FAN OF YOURS🙏❤️
