Tiramisu is a rich and creamy Italian dessert made with espresso soaked ladyfingers, whipped mascarpone, and cocoa powder. The best dessert you'll ever make!
Measure out all the ingredients and read the recipe in its entirety before getting started. Make sure you have an 8x8 baking dish ready to go.
In a stand mixer or large bowl, add the egg yolks, sugar, whipping cream, and mascarpone. Mix until the ingredients are creamy and well combined, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
In another large bowl, add the espresso and rum. Dip each ladyfinger, one at a time, into the espresso rum mixture, quickly, so they don’t get too soggy.
Add the ladyfingers in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish, breaking pieces of the ladyfingers apart to fill in any spaces.
Next, add a dollop of the creamy mascarpone mixture and spread it on top of the soaked ladyfingers into another even layer.
Add another even layer of espresso rum soaked ladyfingers and then another even layer of the mascarpone mixture on top.
Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 3-4 hours (or overnight) to chill.
When you’re ready to serve, before slicing, dust the top of the entire tiramisu with cocoa powder. Slice into squares and enjoy!
