Classic Tiramisu Recipe | Valentine’s Day Dessert

Описание: This is my classic tiramisu, made the way I want it to slice clean and taste bold. Strong espresso dip, creamy mascarpone filling, and that cocoa top that makes people think you went to culinary school. ☕️🍫❤️

📌 Today’s Verse: “Let love and faithfulness never leave you.” Proverbs 3:3

If you’re looking for a homemade tiramisu that is restaurant level but still doable at home, this is it. The keys are strong coffee, a fast dip, and a real overnight chill so the ladyfingers set and the mascarpone cream tightens up for clean slices.

🥄 Instructions

Coffee dip
Pour coffee into a shallow dish. Stir in 90 g (6 tbsp) rum. Reserve remaining 90 g (6 tbsp) rum.

Yolks and sugar
Set a bowl over gently simmering water, not touching.
Whisk yolks and sugar 6 to 8 minutes until pale, glossy, and ribbons. Remove and whisk 1 minute.

Mascarpone
Mix mascarpone into yolk mixture until smooth, keep it gentle.

Whip cream
Whip cream to medium stiff peaks. Add vanilla in last 10 to 15 seconds.

Finish cream
Stir reserved rum into mascarpone mixture.
Fold in whipped cream in thirds until no streaks.

Assemble
Use a 9x13 dish.
Dip ladyfingers quickly, about 1 second per side. Do not soak.
Layer ladyfingers, half the cream, cocoa.
Repeat ladyfingers, remaining cream, smooth top.

Chill

Finish
Sift cocoa on top right before serving. Slice with a sharp knife wiped clean between cuts.

💡 Pro Tips
• The dunk is fast. One second per side or you get soggy tiramisu.
• Strong coffee matters. Weak coffee makes the dessert taste flat.
• Overnight chill is the cheat code for clean slices and better flavor.
• Want it less boozy. Cut rum in half and add 2 to 4 g instant espresso powder to the dip.
