Description

A delightful twist on the classic dessert. Layers of coffee-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone, and rich Nutella make this tiramisu irresistible.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12-18 ladyfingers
  • 1 cups (237 ml) mascarpone cheese
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/3 cups (85 ml) sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cups (59 ml) Nutella
  • 1/2 cups (118 ml) strong black coffee
  • 2 tbsp Kahlúa
  • cocoa powder
  • 4 egg whites
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 2/3 cups (156 ml) sugar
  • 1/4 tsp almond extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cups (237 ml) flour
  • powdered sugar
  • butter or oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line 2 baking trays with parchment paper and grease with butter or oil.
  2. Place egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment and beat until soft peaks form. Slowly add in 2 tablespoons of sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  3. Scrape whites into a separate medium bowl. Add yolks and 2/3 cup sugar to the mixer bowl. Beat until light in color and frothy. Add extracts, salt, and baking powder and mix well.
  4. Fold in the egg white mixture with a rubber spatula until mostly mixed, then sift in flour and continue folding until evenly combined.
  5. Fit a piping bag with a 1/2 inch round tip and fill with the mixture. Pipe into 4 1/2 inch lady fingers, about 1/2 inch apart on the trays. Dust with powdered sugar and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned on the outside. Remove and cool.

For the Tiramisu

  1. Combine yolks and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until light in color. Add mascarpone, salt, and vanilla and beat until smooth.
  2. Take 1 1/2 cups of the mixture and add Nutella to the remaining mixture. Beat until creamy smooth.
  3. Mix coffee and Kahlúa in a small bowl.
  4. Layer coffee-dipped lady fingers, then white cream, then Nutella cream, then a dusting of cocoa. Repeat layers until the dish or glasses are full.

Notes

  • To intensify the coffee flavor, use freshly brewed espresso instead of regular coffee.
  • For a less intense Nutella flavor, reduce the amount of Nutella in the cream to 1/8 cup.
  • Store assembled tiramisu in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
