Coffee Tiramisu
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 3 tablespoons of coffee liqueur
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup of white sugar
- 1/3 cup of milk
- 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups of cooled strong brewed coffee and 2 tablespoons of coffee liqueur.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 3 large egg yolks and 1/2 cup of sugar over medium heat. Whisk in 1/3 cup of milk and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 1 tablespoon of coffee liqueur and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until smooth and well combined.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture and line the bottom of an 8x8 inch dish with a single layer of soaked cookies. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, dust the top with 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve. Slice and enjoy!
Coffee Tiramisu is a classic Italian dessert that originated in the Veneto region of Italy. This delectable treat is made with layers of coffee-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone cheese, and dusted with cocoa powder. The dish is believed to have been created in the 1960s at the restaurant "Le Beccherie" in Treviso, Italy, by chef Roberto Linguanotto. Today, the best versions of this dessert can be found in authentic Italian restaurants, particularly in the regions of Veneto and Tuscany. The key to a perfect Tiramisu lies in using high-quality espresso and rich mascarpone cheese. Some chefs also add a splash of coffee liqueur for an extra kick. For a unique twist, some recipes call for the addition of chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Whether enjoyed in a cozy trattoria in Italy or homemade with love, Coffee Tiramisu is a delightful indulgence for any dessert lover.
