Description
A delightful and easy dessert recipe for Tiramisu in a Jar, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups brewed espresso, cooled
- 1/2 cup coffee liqueur (optional)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
- Dark chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine the cooled espresso and coffee liqueur (if using). Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- In another bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
- In small jars or cups, layer the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom, followed by a layer of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat the layers until the jars are filled, finishing with a layer of mascarpone.
- Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with dark chocolate shavings if desired.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute half of the mascarpone with Greek yogurt.
- You can also add a layer of fresh berries between the ladyfingers for a fruity twist.
