Tiramisu is the ultimate Italian dessert—a true masterpiece! It's incredibly easy to make and absolutely delicious, using just four main ingredients: mascarpone cheese, eggs, ladyfingers, and coffee.This no-bake dessert is always a hit and has many different versions. The one I'm sharing here is a classic tiramisu, based on the authentic Italian recipe.

Instructions

  1. Prepare the coffee. Then add 2 tablespoons of Marsala wine. Set aside and let cool.
  2. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Set aside the yolks and whip the egg whites until stiff. Once ready, set aside.
  3. In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with sugar until light and smooth, 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Pour the mascarpone cheese into a bowl and work it with a spoon to make it softer. When the yolks are ready add the mascarpone cheese.
  5. Whip the mascarpone cream for 2 to 3 minutes. Now add the stiffly beaten egg whites. Mix with a wooden spoon, from bottom up. Mix slowly until smooth and creamy
  6. Dip the ladyfingers quickly (1 or 2 seconds) into the coffee. Then arrange the ladyfingers in the casserole of your liking.
  7. Arrange them so that they cover the bottom of the casserole. Then spread the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers.
  8. Add another layer of ladyfingers and then top with more mascarpone cream. If you are making the last layer, spread the mascarpone cream generously.
  9. Sprinkle with cocoa powder. Allow to rest 3 hours in the refrigerator before serving. Even better if you prepare the tiramisu the day before, letting it rest overnight.
