Tiramisu
A dreamy coffee and chocolate flavoured dessert.
"I should have read the reviews first and not dipped the ladyfingers. It came out really mushy. My family liked it and my mother-in-law even said it was better than she had ever had at a restaurant, but I didn't enjoy it because of the soggy factor. I will probably try it again and just brush the coffee mixture over the ladyfingers."

Notes Ingredients
Tiramisu Preparation
1. Make a pot of strong coffee, pour into a dish or bowl and allow to cool before adding the brandy.
2. Separate the eggs and set aside whites. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and the sugar together until pale and thick.
3. Add the mascarpone and mix until combined.
4. In another bowl, whip the cream and then fold into the egg, sugar and cheese mixture.
5. In a third bowl, beat the egg whites into soft peaks and then quickly fold into the cake mix.
6. Sprinkle a thin layer of cocoa powder into a large dish
7. Dip the biscuits into the coffee and brandy mixture, taking care not to soak them for too long, before placing in the dish.
8. Continue dipping biscuits and placing in the dish, creating a layer of soaked biscuits. Dust with a sprinkling of cocoa powder.
9. Spread a thick layer of the cake mixture over the layer of biscuits, dust with another sprinkling of cocoa powder.
10. Place another layer of soaked biscuits in the dish, again sprinkling with cocoa powder.
11. Smooth the rest of the cake mixture in a thick layer over the second biscuit layer. Sprinkle with cocoa powder.
12. Place in refridgerator and allow to set. Do not serve for at least 2 hours, for the best flavour, leave for 24 hours.

To answer some questions:
1dl=100ml which is on a Pyrex measuring jug
Use heavy cream and whip until stiff
Raw eggs aren't usually a problem , you eat them all the time on Cesar salad dressing!

Delish! I used kahluah flavored coffee and Tuaca liquor instead of rum. Will definitely make again!
|
|
|
What type of cream you use double or single cream
|
|

Definitely a keeper. Occasionally I add layers of sliced strawberries just to mix it up a bit YUM :)

I found this recipe on here years ago and it is now a firm family favourite. I can't cook and even I can't mess this up, in fact we have friends asking me to make it especially.

Amazing recipe! I found the directions easy to follow. This was my first tiramisu, and it came out perfectly.
|

Sounds delicious! The only thing Im concerned about is the raw egg in it!!!
|
|
|
greatest tiramisu i ever made, i didnt buy the mascarpone , i replaced with reg cream cheese and used heavy whipping cream. wasnt creamy at all. was so so good :)
|
|
|
Tasted great! Tasted even better the next day, would definitely recommend chilling over night.
|

Mine came out wet...probably from using the wrong cream like other people. Even though it was wet, it was still AMAZING!! My family loved it and it definitely was one of the best I've tried! I plan on making it again and again until I get it right.
|
|
Brilliant result and so easy to prepare! Beats any tiramisu I've had in any restaurant. Guaranteed clean plates with this one. Thank you!

A little too much cream for my taste and came out too watery for me. Wonder if it's as the earlier comment said... I used whipping cream so might be the wrong cream perhaps?
|
|
|
yummy!
|
|
|
It tastes good! But my cake mix Is watery and not thick enough / I wonder if I bought the wrong whipped cream or I didn't beat the mix enough ..
|
|
|
This is the best-tasting Tiramisu I've ever eaten! My attempt is in the photos section. I would TOTALLY make this again! :D
