Ingredients

TIRAMISU CREAM FILLING
  • ¾ cup whole / whipping cream (cold from the fridge)
  • ¾ cup mascarpone (room temperature)*
  • 1 tablespoon icing / powdered sugar
EXTRAS
  • 6-8 lady fingers
  • 3-4 tablespoons strong coffee
  • 1-2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
*Remove from the fridge 45-60 minutes before preparing.

Instructions

TIRAMISU CREAM FILLING
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl add the cream, mascarpone and powdered sugar, beat on medium / high speed until thickened and creamy. Place in a pastry bag with a large round pastry tip.
  2. Either dip the lady fingers one at a time in a flat bowl containing the coffee or place 3-4 lady fingers (depending on size of cookies) on a plate and spoon the coffee over the cookies.
  3. Form a heart with the mascarpone filling on the coffee soaked lady fingers. Refrigerate at least 3 hours (can also be made the day before). Sprinkle with cocoa before serving. Decorate with chocolate dipped strawberries if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can add an egg if you choose. Italians believe the egg helps give the filling the creamy soft as a cloud texture.
  • Tiramisu can be made 1 to 2 days in advance and should be stored in refrigerator. Definitely refrigerate the dessert at least 2-3 hours before serving.
  • Any left over Tiramisu should be refrigerated and never leave the dessert out for more than two hours. It will keep for up to 4 days in total and leftovers should be refrigerated immediately. Tiramisu can be frozen for up to 3 months.
