Easy Tiramisu Recipe
This is such a simple but delicious Tiramisu, quick and easy to make too
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 200 gram boudoir biscuits
- 250 ml/1 cup fresh cream
- 250 gram mascarpone
- 1/3 castor sugar
- 5 ml vanilla essence
- 1 cup espresso made with 2 tbsp espresso
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
Instructions
- Add whipping cream and castor sugar to a mixing bowl and whip until soft peaks are formed
- Mix in the vanilla essence and the mascarpone cheese until stiff peaks form
- Add the cool espresso to a shallow bowl and dip in the boudoir biscuits, don't let it soak too much and remove
- Place a layer at the bottom of a dish. Spread half the cream mixture on top. Repeat with another layer of biscuits and spread the other half of the cream mixture on top. You can use a piping bag if you wish.
- Refrigerate for 3-4 hours. Sprinkle the cocoa powder on top, using a fine mesh strainer, just before serving
Notes
- If you don't have espresso you can use a strong coffee
- The biscuits can be replaced with a plain firm cake. I have tried this before and it works
- Do not let your biscuits soak too long in the espresso or it will become mushy
