Method for making homemade tiramisu dessert
In the traditional tiramisu recipe you need the biscuit “Ladies fingers” biscuit, which in Italian is called “Savoyardi”. Bake it is not difficult, but you can buy ready-made. However, if difficulties arise with this ingredient, just pick up something similar in shape and quality in the store.
I found marvelous shortbread cookies with raisins, a long, rather lush, the result was very tasty.
Next, we make tiramisu cream. Eggs carefully wash, separate the whites from the yolks. Pound yolks with powdered sugar and cream cheese. A little powder left to whip proteins.
Separately, whip proteins, in the process we add in turn a few teaspoons of powdered sugar. Combine whipped whites and cream cheese.
Then whip the cream, add to the rest of the ingredients, gently mix.
Brew a cup of very strong and sweet coffee. Strain the drink, cool it, add coffee liqueur. Usually cooked with amaretto, in my opinion, it is not so important. If you like the flavor of almonds in tiramisu, add a few drops of almond extract.
We take a container for making dessert, preferably a deep transparent salad bowl. Next we place the prepared ingredients in order to quickly collect tiramisu - whipped cream, coffee with liqueur, biscuits and cocoa powder. For a uniform distribution of cocoa take a fine sieve. So, put a thick layer of cream on the bottom.
Cookies for a homemade tiramisu dessert recipe soaked in coffee. It is necessary that it absorbs moisture and does not fall apart, so we are closely monitoring this process!
On the cream put a row of cookies.
Then, put the butter cream on the biscuit again and powder this layer with cocoa powder.
Next we make another layer of cookies and cream. At this stage, we remove the capacity from tiramisu to the refrigeration chamber for 4 hours, longer, less is not desirable.
When the guests are gathered, we finish the process of preparing tiramisu - sprinkle the top layer of cream with cocoa powder and decorate with a sprig of fresh mint.
Serve tiramisu on the table with a cup of aromatic coffee and liqueur. Enjoy the taste! Enjoy your meal!
