How to Make Tra Vigne's Chocolate Tiramisu By Michael Chiarello

  1. Prepare the espresso: Brew strong espresso and let it cool completely. You can also use very strong coffee.
  2. Prepare the cake: If using a store-bought cake, cut it into 1-inch thick slices. If making your own, bake according to recipe instructions, ensuring it cools completely before slicing.
  3. Dip the cake: Briefly dip each cake slice into the cooled espresso, ensuring it's moistened but not soggy. Set aside on a wire rack.
  4. Make the mascarpone filling: In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, beating until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gently fold in the cocoa powder and liqueur (optional).
  5. Assemble the tiramisu: In a serving dish, layer the espresso-soaked cake slices and the mascarpone filling, repeating layers until all ingredients are used. End with a layer of mascarpone filling.
  6. Chill and serve: Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. Before serving, dust generously with cocoa powder.
