Homemade Tiramisu Recipe

I had no idea how easy tiramisu actually is to make. This recipe pulls together our last couple of videos (the ladyfingers and the cold brew coffee) to make some extremely light and fluffy tiramisu. It's a very rich dessert with the heavy cream and the mascarpone sabayon, but you whip a lot of air into both the egg yolks and the cream, so the end result comes out lovely and light.

Espresso is more traditional for the coffee portion of this recipe, but we made our cold brew coffee extra strong specifically for this purpose. Also, if you don't like coffee (like me!) you can use other flavours inside your tiramisu. We made a second smaller one (we had lots of leftover filling) that we soaked the ladyfingers in sweet dark rum and Grand Marinier, and it was delicious (though very boozy). You can also leave the alcohol out entirely and flavour your dessert with some kind of fruit juice and syrup.

Somewhere? I have made a couple times and this is the first recipe I've seen where you don't dunk but brush the lady fingers. Dunking turns out badly. If you dunk for more than 5 seconds the ladyfingers fall apart.

Did this chef make their own ladyfingers?

Loved the video...more a naration. And no annoying stories mixed in.

If you go check out the video on YouTube, all of the recipe amount are in the description below the video, as well as links to our video on ladyfinger and the link to the cold brew coffee.

And yeah, brushing was definitely the way to go, because you still get that nice saturated flavour without the biscuits completely falling apart from dunking.

Thanks so much! The chef is my husband, and I do the narration for all of our videos
