How to make tiramisu with biscuits

Tiramisu is a classic and popular Italian dessert that can be made in various ways. At its core, it consists of a delightful combination of coffee, mascarpone cheese, ladyfinger biscuits, and cocoa powder. This dessert originated in the Veneto region of Italy in the 1960s and quickly gained global popularity, appearing on the menus of many leading restaurants and cafes around the world.

The rich taste of coffee, paired with the creaminess of the mascarpone cheese and the perfect balance of sweetness, makes tiramisu a unique choice for dessert enthusiasts. The name “tiramisu” translates to “lift me up” in Italian, referring to the energizing qualities of this treat. In Iran, tiramisu has also been adapted to suit local tastes. In this article, we will explore how to make this delicious dessert step by step.

Essentials	Amount required
Eggs	3
Sugar	110 grams
Vanilla extract	Half a teaspoon
Mascarpone cheese	250 grams
Ladyfinger biscuits	200 grams
Cocoa powder	200 grams
coffee	One cup

In the initial step, it is essential to separate the egg yolks from the whites. Set the egg whites aside and combine the yolks with the sugar in an appropriate bowl. Utilize an electric mixer to beat the yolk and sugar mixture for a duration of 6 to 7 minutes, or until the color becomes light and the texture attains a creamy thickness. Subsequently, incorporate vanilla and mascarpone cheese into the yolk mixture. Ensure that all ingredients are blended thoroughly until achieving a smooth consistency, and then transfer the mixture to a larger bowl.

Following this, clean the mixer blades thoroughly. Pour the egg whites into a clean bowl and beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for approximately 3 minutes, or until the mixture becomes thick and fluffy. The texture should be sufficiently stable so that it does not fall out when the bowl is inverted. Gently fold half of the cream mixture into the beaten egg whites using circular motions. Then, add the remaining cream mixture and combine evenly.

Prepare either espresso or instant coffee and allow it to cool completely. If using instant coffee, dissolve it in boiling water and set aside. Select a rectangular dish, preferably made of Pyrex, and briefly immerse the ladyfingers in the cooled coffee. It is crucial to remove them quickly to prevent them from becoming overly soft. Arrange the soaked ladyfingers side by side along the bottom of the dish to create a complete layer.

To make a simple tiramisu, start by mixing the egg yolks with powdered sugar in a bowl. Beat the mixture well with a mixer until it becomes creamy. Next, add the cream cheese and continue beating until the mixture is smooth.

Soak the petit beurre biscuits in coffee and arrange them in a serving dish. After that, fill the biscuits with the creamy mixture. Repeat this process until the dish is full. Finally, cover the last layer with cocoa powder and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours.

To make chocolate tiramisu, follow the same method as regular tiramisu, but add melted chocolate or chocolate chips to the ingredients used between the biscuits.

To make tiramisu in a glass, start by using a glass instead of a Pyrex dish. Layer the biscuits either at the bottom or around the sides of the glass, and then fill the center with the other ingredients.

To prepare single-serve tiramisu, arrange small individual dishes to serve the dessert separately for each person
