How to Make Classic Tiramisu
- Brew strong espresso and let it cool completely. In a shallow dish, combine the cooled espresso with a tablespoon of coffee liqueur (optional).
- In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
- Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the espresso mixture, ensuring they are moistened but not soggy. Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a glass or serving dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers.
- Repeat layers with remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone cream.
- Dust the top with cocoa powder and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Garnish with shaved chocolate or cocoa powder before serving. Enjoy!
