Ingredients for Barefoot Contessa S Tiramisu
How to Make Barefoot Contessa S Tiramisu
- Brew strong coffee and let it cool completely. In a shallow dish, whisk together the cooled coffee and coffee liqueur (if using).
- In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
- Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are moistened but not soggy. Arrange a layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
- Dust with half of the cocoa powder.
- Repeat layers with remaining ladyfingers, mascarpone mixture, and cocoa powder.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, dust with remaining cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate shavings (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
