Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 6 each egg yolks
  • 200 g caster sugar This is just less than 1 cup, approximately 9 tenths of a cup.
  • 400 g mascarpone
  • 30 each Savoiardi Lady Finger Biscuits
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the egg yolks and caster sugar until pale and creamy. Use a double boiler to heat this mixture gently while whisking continuously.
  • Once thickened, transfer the mixture to a mixer and whisk until fluffy. Then, fold in the mascarpone carefully.
  • Prepare coffee and dip the Savoiardi into it quickly.
  • Layer the mascarpone custard and soaked Savoiardi in serving glasses, finishing with custard on top.
  • Cover and refrigerate. Best served chilled for at least three hours or overnight.
  • Dust with unsweetened cocoa before serving.

Notes

  • Caster Sugar: This can be substituted for regular granulated white sugar or a granulated sugar alternative such as stevia.
  • Coffee: If you wish to use decaffeinated coffee that is absolutely fine.
  • Savoiardi: Also known as ladyfingers. I recommend finding them in your local supermarket rather than substituting them for something else.
  • Cocoa: Traditionally, Tiramisu has quite a heavy dusting of cocoa, but you could use shaved chocolate if you prefer.
  • Mascarpone: As this is a traditional Italian cream cheese used to make Tiramisu, I recommend finding it in your local supermarket.
