Description
A festive and delicious no-bake tiramisu featuring layers of creamy mascarpone and coffee-soaked ladyfingers, perfect for celebrations.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur (optional)
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
- Dark chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese until fully combined and smooth. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
- In a shallow dish, combine the cooled coffee and coffee liqueur, if using. Dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for about 1-2 seconds, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
- In a 9×9-inch square dish, layer half of the soaked ladyfingers on the bottom. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with dark chocolate shavings, if desired.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute half of the heavy cream with Greek yogurt.
- For a flavor twist, add a splash of vanilla extract or almond extract to the coffee mixture before dipping the ladyfingers.
