Ingredients
- 28-30 Savoiardi biscuits/cookies (use an egg-free version if avoiding egg completely)
- 2 cups mascarpone (500g)
- 2 cups heavy cream double cream UK (460ml)
- 6 tbsp white sugar (100g)
- 1.5 cup strong brewed coffee (375ml)
- 3 tbsp coffee liqueur
- 1-2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1-2 squares dark chocolate for grating (optional)
Instructions
- Brew the coffee and add it to a large dish with 3 tbsp coffee liqueur, stir to combine.
- In a large bowl whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks, be careful not to over beat!
- In a separate bowl beat the mascarpone, sugar and 1 tbsp coffee liqueur until smooth and creamy. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture 1/2 at a time until well combined.
- One at a time, dunk the Savoiardi biscuits into the coffee mixture for 1-2 seconds each side and arrange them in one flat layer in your baking dish.
- Top with half of the mascarpone cream mixture then grate over some dark chocolate. Repeat with a second layer of coffee soaked savoiardi biscuits and the last half of the mascarpone mixture. Cover with foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, overnight preferred.
- When ready to serve, dust the top of the tiramisu with cocoa powder and grate over more dark chocolate if desired. Serve.

Notes
- Note about eggs - while this recipe has no eggs in the filling, traditional Italian Savoiardi (ladyfingers) contain eggs so if you are avoiding egg because of an allergy you need to use an egg-free alternative.
- Don't overwhip the cream - heavy cream (double cream UK) can overwhip in a matter of seconds. It should hold its shape but be smooth and velvety.
- No alcohol - you can skip the alcohol and replace it with more coffee if desired.
- Caffeine-free - if you need to avoid caffeine you can use decaf espresso coffee instead.
- Storage - the tiramisu will keep well in the fridge (covered) for up to 3-4 days.
