Notes
- Make Ahead: Tiramisu parfaits can be made ahead! Store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for the best flavors to meld.
- Customizing the Flavor: For a variation, try adding flavored syrups like hazelnut or caramel to the coffee, or use different liqueurs like amaretto.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve chilled in individual glass jars or parfait glasses for an elegant presentation. Garnish with cocoa powder and chocolate shavings.
- Allergy-Friendly Options: For a dairy-free version, use a dairy-free mascarpone cheese and heavy cream substitute, like coconut cream.
- Storage Tips: Keep parfaits in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. The layers will soften over time, but the flavor will still be delicious!
