Ingredients

  • . These can be stored for a week in an air-tight container.
  • For the tiramisu:
    • 2 large eggs, separated
    • 1/3 cup (80 g) blond cane sugar
    • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    • 7 oz (200 g) mascarpone, at room temperature
    • Pinch of sea salt
    • 3/4 cup prepared dark coffee
    • 10 ladyfingers (I made a Gluten free version)
    • Unsweetened cocoa powder, to dust
  • Steps:
    • In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar and vanilla. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water and continue to beat until the batter is light in color and doubles in volume.
    • Beat in the mascarpone. Let cool slightly.
    • Whip the egg whites firm with a pinch of salt and fold them in the egg batter.
    • Have four small water glasses handy. Take 1 ladyfinger and dip it quickly in the coffee. Coat the bottom of the first glass with it, cutting it in pieces if necessary. Repeat with the other glasses.
    • Cover the layer of ladyfinger with mascarpone cream and repeat another layer of ladyfingers (dipped in coffee) in each glass.
    • Finish with the rest of the mascarpone cream. Cover each glass with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 5 hours (or overnight, which is what I always prefer to do).
    • When ready to serve, dust each glass with cocoa powder and serve with the tuiles on the side.
  • Note: I prefer my tiramisu without the addition of marsala or rum. It’s a question of preference.
