Tiramisu

Ingredients

• 1 pint heavy cream

• 8 ounce mascarpone cheese at room temperature!

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

• 2 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 ½ cup strong espresso/coffee at room temperature

• 1 package lady fingers

• cocoa powder for dusting

Instructions

1. First start by adding the cream, sugar and vanilla to the stand mixer bowl. Whip until stiff peaks form. (Setting on Kitchen aid mixer 8-9 for around 6-7 minutes)

2. Add in the room temperature mascarpone cheese and mix it in with the cream. Don't over-mix, we want to mix it just until it is well incorporated. Set aside.

3. Pour the cooled down espresso in a shallow bowl. Dip in the lady fingers quickly and place them in a single layer at the bottom of the 8×10 baking pan.

4. Smooth out half the mascarpone mixture over the top, sprinkle cocoa powder, then repeat the process of dipping the lady fingers in the espresso and placing them over the mascarpone mixture in a single layer.

5. Top the lady fingers with the mascarpone mixture one more time, smooth it out over the top and dust the cocoa powder over the top of the tiramisu generously.

6. Place the tiramisu in the fridge for 3 hours or overnight.

7. Serve and enjoy!
