Hazelnut Coffee Tiramisu
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 3 tablespoons hazelnut liqueur
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups of strong brewed coffee and 2 tablespoons of hazelnut liqueur. Set aside.
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk together 3 large egg yolks and 1/2 cup of white sugar. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Add 8 ounces of mascarpone cheese to the egg yolk mixture and beat until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 1 tablespoon of hazelnut liqueur and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy. Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of an 8x8 inch dish.
- 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 and 1/4 cup of chopped hazelnuts. Enjoy!
