Easy Tiramisu
Contains raw egg, traditional preparation
Ingredients
- 12 each Eggs yolks and whites separated
- 400 gras Caster sugar
- 2 tsp Vanilla essence
- 1 kg Marscapone
- 5 cups Espresso coffee Strong plunger ok if other unavailable
- 8 tbsp Coffe liqueur can use other type not liqueur
- 800 grams Lady finger biscuits approx 92 single fingers
- 1 each Cocoa for dusting
Instructions
- Beat yolks and sugar in stand mixer on medium high for 12 minutes or until white and thick.
- Add vanilla and mascarpone, beat until just combined. Transfer mixture to a bowl, set aside.
- Beat egg whites until stiff.
- Fold ⅓ of the yolk mixture into the egg whites. Then gradually fold the remaining yolk mixture in and mix until just combined. (It doesn't need to be perfectly smooth. It will look a bit "lumpy", being the egg whites, which means your cream mixture is lovely and light. The "lumps" smooth out when you spread the cream, and also while resting overnight.
- Mix coffee and liquor together. Quickly dip biscuits in and line the bottom of a full sized gastro.
- Spread over half the cream, then top with another layer of coffee dipped biscuits.
- Spread with remaining cream.
- Cover & refrigerate overnight
- Dust with cocoa powder just before cutting & serving
