This dessert truly lives up to its name - you can make it in just a few minutes! Best of all, this recipe contains no raw eggs and no alcohol.
Servings: 4 portions
Ingredients
- 125 ml heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 4 tbsp milk
- 250 grams mascarpone cheese
- 250 ml strong brewed coffee cooled
- About 18 ladyfingers
- Unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting
Equipment
- Dessert glasses or small jars
Instructions
- Note: This tiramisu contains no raw eggs, but the ladyfingers themselves do contain eggs.
- Brew a strong cup of coffee and let it cool completely. Break the ladyfingers into smaller pieces, I broke each one into three pieces.
- Whip the heavy cream with the sugar until stiff peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, stir the milk into the mascarpone until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream.
- Place a layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of each glass or jar and drizzle about 1 tablespoon of coffee over them.
- Add a layer of the mascarpone mixture. You can spoon it in or pipe it using a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
- Continue layering ladyfingers, coffee, and mascarpone until the glasses are full.
- Finish with a swirl of mascarpone cream and dust generously with cocoa powder using a fine-mesh sieve.
- Garnish with a piece of ladyfinger just before serving.
Tips
A standard cup of coffee is about 5 ounces (140 ml). You can brew several shots of espresso until you reach that amount if you prefer a stronger coffee flavor.
