Ingredients
Scale
- 16 oz (454 g) mascarpone cheese

- 6 large egg yolks

- 2 tsps (10 ml) vanilla extract
- 1 cup (240 ml) espresso or very strong coffee, cooled
- 40 ladyfingers cookies
- 2 tbsps (10 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, blend the mascarpone cheese with ½ cup of Baileys Irish cream until smooth and light. Set aside.
- Create a double boiler by placing a heat-safe bowl over a pot of simmering water. Whisk egg yolks and granulated sugar together for 5-7 minutes until thickened and pale. Remove from heat.
- Slowly mix the egg yolk mixture into the mascarpone until smooth and well combined.
- In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until medium peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture gently.
- Combine cooled espresso with the remaining Baileys Irish cream in a shallow bowl.
- Dip ladyfingers into the espresso mixture briefly, then arrange them in a 9×13-inch dish, creating a single layer.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers evenly.
- Layer another set of dipped ladyfingers and top with the remaining mascarpone mixture. Smooth the top.
- Dust cocoa powder evenly over the top using a fine sieve.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight before serving.
Notes
For best results, use high-quality espresso or strong coffee for dipping.
Allowing the tiramisu to chill overnight enhances the flavors.
Feel free to serve the cocoa on the side for a fresh touch before serving.
