Instructions

  1. Gently whisk the mascarpone cheese together with the zabaglione cream (or whipped cream, or pastry cream) until creamy and fully combined. Do not overmix.
  2. In a small baking dish mix the cold espresso coffee with the marsala,.
  3. Place a few slices of panettone in a rectangular 6x8 inches baking dish, until the whole base is covered. Drizzle half of the coffee mixture over the top.
  4. Spread half of the prepared mascarpone cream filling gently over the panettone base, making sure it's evenly covered. You can use a spatula or large spoon to help you with this.
  5. Repeat the process of layering a few more slices of panettone over the mascarpone cream, making sure it's evenly covered. Drizzle the remaining coffee and marsala mixture over the top.
  6. Finally, spread evenly the remaining mascarpone cream on top of the panettone slices.
  7. Place the panettone tiramisu in the fridge, and allow it to set for at least a couple of hours, even better if you leave it overnight.
  8. Just before serving it, dust the Christmas tiramisu' with cocoa powder, and serve it straight away.

Notes

  • Can I substitute panettone?
  • You can substitute Italian panettone with the equally popular pandoro. You can also use ladyfingers just as the classic tiramisu', or a simple sponge cake.
  • Cut the cake into 1cm (½ inch) thick slices and let them dry overnight on a wire rack ( or place them in the oven at 100 C for about half an hour). Then cut the slices into fingers or sticks, and proceed with the recipe.
  • Can I substitute Marsala?
  • Marsala may not be easy to find outside of Italy, so you can easily substitute with another liqueur. Some great alternative liqueurs to use are Amaretto, Irish Cream or coffee liqueur.
  • For a kid-friendly version, substitute the liqueur and coffee with milk mixed with 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder.
  • Use cold espresso coffee - Make sure you leave your coffee to cool before dipping the savoiardi in it.
  • If your coffee is still hot, chances are that your panettone will soak up the liquid quicker, and thus give you a very soggy result.
  • What if my Tiramisu is soggy and runny?
  • There are a few reasons you might have ended up with a soggy Tiramisu:
  • • You might have overworked the mascarpone cream. Mix the cheese with the zabaione cream (or pastry cream, or whipped cream) until creamy and just combined.
  • • Your panettone slices soaked too much coffee+liqueur mixture. Drizzle gently the coffee mixture over the top of the panettone.
  • However, please don't worry over a runny tiramisu'. Place it in the freezer for a couple of hours, then dust it with cocoa powder and serve it as a "frozen dessert"!
