This classic dessert is fun to make and irresistible to eat!
You will need:
| 6 |
pasteurized* egg yolks |
6 |
| 3 tbsp |
sugar |
45 ml |
| 1 pound |
Mascarpone cheese |
450 g |
| 1 1 1/2 cups |
strong NESCAFÉ Espresso, cooled |
375 ml |
| 24 |
lady fingers |
24 |
| 1/2 cup |
NESTLÉ NOIR Intense chocolate shavings |
125 ml |
| 1 |
box (50 g) NESTLÉ SMARTIES |
1 |
Step 1:
In a large bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar using an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Add mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of coffee and mix until thoroughly combined.
Step 2:
In a shallow dish, add remaining coffee. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee - letting the ladyfingers soak too long will cause them to fall apart. Place the dipped ladyfingers on the bottom of a 13 x 9 inch (3.5 L) baking dish - break them in half if necessary to fit around the bottom of the dish.
Step 3:
Spread evenly half of the mascarpone mixture over the lady fingers. Arrange another layer of soaked ladyfingers and top with remaining mascarpone mixture.
Step 4:
Cover tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 8 hours. Before serving, sprinkle with NESTLÉ NOIR Intense chocolate shavings. Add colour by topping up each serving with a SMARTIES. Enjoy!
