What is Tiramisu?
Tiramisu is an Italian dessert made by soaking ladyfingers in concentrated coffee, then layering them with a dreamy mascarpone cream and dusting with cocoa powder. The combination of mascarpone, coffee, and cocoa powder is simply delicious.
Ingredients Needed
Mascarpone: Soften to room temperature ahead of time. This is the core ingredient for tiramisu, giving it a rich, creamy flavor and smooth texture.
Eggs: Separate the egg whites and yolks. The yolks are used for the custard, adding flavor and richness.
White sugar:Whisk into the egg yolks to add sweetness and balance the overall flavor.
Heavy cream:Whip and mix with the other ingredients to make the mascarpone cream lighter and smoother.
Ladyfingers:These absorb the coffee liquid and form the layers of tiramisu, providing a unique texture and structure. I bought mine, but you can make them yourself.
Instant coffee powder:Dissolve in water and use to soak the ladyfingers, giving the tiramisu its rich coffee flavor. You can also brew strong hot coffee to dip the ladyfingers in.
Cocoa powder:For dusting on top, adding a cocoa flavor and enhancing the appearance.
Essential Tools
1. Mixing bowls:
You’ll need at least two, one for mascarpone, egg yolks, sugar, and heavy cream, to make mixing easier. Choose a large, deep stainless steel or glass bowl to avoid splashing while mixing.
2.Manual or electric egg beater:
A manual whisk is simple to use for smaller amounts, while an electric mixer is faster and more efficient for whipping egg yolks and sugar, as well as whipping the heavy cream.
3. Container (e.g., storage container):
For assembling and storing the tiramisu. I used a container with dimensions 22.3cm long, 15cm wide, and 6.6cm high. After assembly, cover it to chill in the fridge.
4. Spatula:
Use to evenly spread the mascarpone cream over the bottom of the container and the ladyfingers, and to smooth the surface for neat layers.
5. Sifter:
Once the tiramisu is made, sift cocoa powder evenly over the top to give it a smooth, fine finish and enhance its decoration.
Can You Make Tiramisu Without Mascarpone Cheese?
Some people prefer to make tiramisu without mascarpone. If you're one of them, here’s an alternative!
As a replacement for mascarpone, you can mix 8 oz cream cheese with ¼ cup heavy cream. This will give your easy tiramisu the same creamy texture and delicious flavor!
INGREDIENTS
MAIN INGREDIENTS
- 250g Mascarpone cheese
- 2 egg yolks
- 200g heavy cream
- 16 ladyfingers
ACCESSORIES
- 2g instant coffee powder
- Cocoa powder (for dusting)
- 40g white sugar
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
In a bowl, add 250g of mascarpone (softened to room temperature). Mix until smooth.
STEP 2
Separate the egg whites and yolks.
In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the 2 egg yolks and 40g of sugar. Place the bowl over a pot of hot water and continue to whisk.
STEP 3
In a separate bowl, whip 200g of heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
STEP 4
Gently fold together the egg yolk mixture, mascarpone, and whipped heavy cream until well combined.
STEP 5
Prepare 2g of instant coffee powder and dissolve it in a little water.
STEP 6
Begin assembling the tiramisu:
Spread a thin layer of the mascarpone mixture on the bottom of the box.
Quickly dip each ladyfinger, both sides, into the coffee liquid and arrange them on top of the cream mixture.
Add another layer of mascarpone mixture and smooth the surface.
Repeat the process: add another layer of coffee-soaked ladyfingers, then top with more mascarpone cream.
STEP 7
Cover with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is preferred).

Tips for Making Perfect Tiramisu
1. Use high-quality ingredients:
Tiramisu is made with only a few simple ingredients, so the quality of those ingredients will truly shine in the final dish.
2. Quickly dip the ladyfingers in coffee:
Ladyfingers soak up liquid quickly, so don’t leave them in the coffee for too long. Dip them fast, then arrange them on top without letting them fall apart!
3. Use strong coffee:
To make sure the coffee flavor doesn’t get lost in the mascarpone cream, brew very strong coffee (or mix 8 tablespoons of instant coffee powder with 2 cups of hot water).
4. Let the tiramisu set before serving:
If you skip this step, you’ll end up with a messy dessert and no distinct layers. Be sure to chill the tiramisu for at least 4 hours (overnight is even better!) before serving.
Recipe Variations
Fruit-flavored Tiramisu:
Add fresh fruit slices like strawberries, mango, or blueberries between the mascarpone layers. The sweet and tart fruit complements the rich mascarpone and coffee flavors for a refreshing twist.
Chocolate Tiramisu:
Mix melted chocolate or chocolate sauce into the mascarpone mixture for a rich, chocolatey flavor. You can also top it with chocolate shavings instead of cocoa powder for an indulgent touch.
Nut-flavored Tiramisu:
Chop up almonds or walnuts and sprinkle them between the layers of mascarpone and ladyfingers. This adds texture and enhances the nutty aroma.
