Tiramisu: Original Italian Recipe with Biscuits

Table of Contents

INGREDIENTS

500g mascarpone cheese
300g of sponge fingers
100g caster sugar
5 eggs
Strong coffee, cooled (quantity needed to soak the biscuits)
Unsweetened cocoa powder (for decoration)

Preparation :

Start by brewing a strong coffee. Let it cool to room temperature.
In a saucepan, prepare the syrup: mix the sugar with 2 tablespoons of water. Bring to a boil until the temperature reaches 121°C. Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure accuracy.
While the syrup is being prepared, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the yolks and, while whisking, slowly pour in the hot syrup. Continue beating until the texture is pale and frothy.
Gradually incorporate the mascarpone cheese into the egg yolks, making sure to maintain an airy texture.
Arrange a layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of a suitable dish. Soak them generously with cooled coffee. For an extra touch, mix the coffee with a little amaretto or coffee liqueur.
Pour the mascarpone mixture over the biscuits, using a spatula or piping bag for better distribution.
Repeat the operation, alternating a layer of soaked biscuits and a layer of mascarpone cream. Finish with a layer of cream.
Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
Before serving, sprinkle the tiramisu generously with unsweetened cocoa powder. For an aesthetic effect, use a sieve.
Final note:
Tiramisu is the perfect embodiment of Italian sweetness and indulgence. Each bite will transport you to the picturesque streets of Italy, where passion for cooking and authentic flavors are at the heart of every dish.
