Cinnamon Coffee Tiramisu
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the brewed coffee and instant espresso powder. Set aside to cool.
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated 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 is pale and thick, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Add the mascarpone cheese to the egg yolk mixture and whisk until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
- Dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for a few seconds, making sure not to soak them completely. Arrange a layer of dipped ladyfingers in the bottom of an 8x8 inch dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of dipped 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 unsweetened cocoa powder and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
