Tiramisu Crepe Cake
The Tiramisu Crepe Cake is built by layering paper-thin crepes with a smooth cream cheese and espresso-flavored filling, whipped with heavy cream to add lightness. Each crepe layer is spread with the creamy mixture and dusted with cocoa powder, forming a tall multi-layered dessert. After resting to meld the flavors, it is frosted with whipped cream and finished with cocoa on top for a striking tiramisu-inspired presentation.
Ingredients
- 30 crepes double the recipe
- 24 oz cream cheese softened at room temperature
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream very cold
- 1/3 cup espresso shot
- 1 cup condensed milk
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
Instructions
- Prepare crepes according to recipe instructions. (8 inch in size works perfect for this recipe)
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, condesed milk and espresso. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add heavy whipping cream and whisk until the cream is fluffy. Keep an eye on the mixture as it mixes since iit can turn lumpy. Set aside 2 cups of cream for frosting the outside of the cake. I suggest refrigerating it in a sealed container.
- Use a springform pan as a mold. Place a piece of plastic wrap on the bottom. Start with a crepe, spread cream and follow with a dusting of cocoa powder. Repeat until you run out of cream and crepes.
- Let it rest for at least 24 hours. Flip the cake with a bottom side up. Remove the sides.
- Cover the cake with the cream you set aside for frosting.
- Sprinkle some cocoa powder on top. Enjoy!
