Report
Tiramisu is a classic Italian dessert. Use any liqueur of your choice, or, leave it out completely. Amaretto is a great choice, but so is Marsala wine, Kahlua, or dark rum. Allow the tiramisu to set in the fridge for at least 2 hours, overnight is best.

Ingredients
- 6 egg yolks room temperature
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 lb mascarpone room temperature
- 6 egg whites room temperature
- 25 ladyfingers
- 2 cups brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting
- 4 tablespoon amaretto or Marsala wine, Kahlua, dark rum (or omit)
Instructions
- Use an electric mixer to whip the egg yolks with the sugar until pale, making sure the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Mix in the mascarpone cheese and whip for about 1 to 2 minutes until well combined and smooth. Mix in the Amaretto.
- In a separate bowl, use your cleaned electric mixer to whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Fold the egg white into the egg yolks/mascarpone mixture in several additions.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream mixture in your baking dish (8x8 or 9x9).
- Very briefly submerge a ladyfinger into the cooled espresso and then place it in the dish on top of the cream (don't over-soak the ladyfingers!). Continue until you filled the dish with one layer.
- Spoon another layer of the cream mixture (half of the mixture) over the ladyfingers and then repeat with another layer of lightly espresso-soaked ladyfingers.
- Cover with foil or plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- Just before serving, dust the top with the cocoa powder with a fine-mesh sieve.

- Ladyfingers can be found in the Italian section (or in the cookies section) of many well-stocked supermarkets, at an Italian food market, or online.
- For best results, allow the tiramisu to chill in the fridge for 12 hours.
- Leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. We don't recommend freezing tiramisu.
- NOTE: Consuming raw eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions.
