Tiramisu ♥

I am in love with this dessert..If I have tried to make a dessert several times, then that is only Tiramisu..  I have made other versions before. (Exp 1 , Exp 2, Exp 3)

This recipe is heavily inspired from Nigella’s. If you want to make a chilled dessert overnight, then go for this. I am using honey to give a healthy twist and it is still delicious

You need

• Savoiardi biscuits or sponge fingers – 30 nos

For cream

• Mascarpone cheese – 250 grams
• Whipping cream – 200 ml
• Honey – 5 tbsp (Original recipe says 1 cup of sugar)
• Vanilla essence – 1 teaspoon

For dipping syrup

• milk – 150 ml
• cocoa powder – 1 tbsp
• instant coffee  – 1 tbsp (preferably expresso)
• vanilla essence – 1 teaspoon

For dusting

• Generous amount of cocoa powder for dusting

You have to
Step 1

• Keep the whipping cream in a bowl in the refrigerator to chill…at least 30 minutes
• Beat mascarpone with 2 tbsp of honey till creamy. 
• Take out the whipping cream bowl from the refrigerator and whisk whipping cream with remaining honey till stiff peaks formed
• Then pour it into mascarpone bowl.
• Add vanilla essence and mix them just till combined (don’t over mix)

Step 2

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl which is mentioned under dipping syrup. Keep aside

Step 3

• You use a rectangular dish of at least 9X9 inch. I some time use tall or small glasses. SO that it will make easy to serve. You can check my previous recipes (Links are on top of this page)
• Now dip the biscuits in the syrup, one by one and place them in the dish 
• Dust some cocoa powder on top of the biscuits
• Pour 1/2 of the cream on the biscuits. and spread gently to reach all corners.
• For 2nd layer, repeat the dipping process and finish up all the balance of the cream.
• Dust the top with cocoa powder as you like
• Refrigerate overnight.
• Serve chill

Notes

• You could use cream cheese instead of mascarpone
• I prepared tiramisu in 2 portions. One is a plate as you see above and other in a box. You can increase the layer depending upon the presentation.
