Classic Gordon Tiramisu (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Cream Blend
01 -
67g white sugar
02 -
1 tsp vanilla essence
03 -
355ml heavy cream for whipping
04 -
225g mascarpone, softened
→ Coffee Soak
05 -
3 tbsp coffee liqueur (optional, like Kahlua or DaVinci)
06 -
355ml chilled brewed espresso
→ Putting It Together
07 -
Cocoa powder to sprinkle on top
08 -
One pack of Lady Fingers
# Instructions:
01 -
Whisk the heavy cream in a large bowl using a mixer at medium speed. As you go, pour in the sugar and vanilla. Keep at it until stiff peaks form.
02 -
Take the softened mascarpone and slowly fold it into the whipped cream. Stir until smooth and everything blends well. Set aside.
03 -
In a shallow dish, stir the chilled espresso together with the optional coffee liqueur.
04 -
Quickly dip both sides of each ladyfinger into the coffee mix—don't let them soak through. Lay them single-file across the bottom of an 8×8-inch (20x20cm) dish.
05 -
Smooth half of the mascarpone blend over the dipped lady fingers. Add a second layer of soaked lady fingers and spread the remaining cream mixture on top.
06 -
Grab a fine sifter and sprinkle cocoa atop the mascarpone in an even layer.
07 -
Wrap it up and pop it into the fridge. Leave it to set for at least 3-4 hours, but overnight is even better for the flavor to shine.
# Notes:
01 -
This creamy, dreamy Tiramisu inspired by Gordon Ramsay is a dessert perfect for any get-together. Using ingredients like espresso, mascarpone, and lady fingers, it's packed with flavor and simple to make.
02 -
Opt for fresh espresso: Brewed fresh and cooled, espresso gives the best depth of flavor.
03 -
Be quick with the lady fingers: Don't let them swim in the coffee—just a fast dip keeps the layers intact.
04 -
Overnight chilling works wonders: Letting it sit for a longer time makes the flavors meld perfectly.
