Description
A delicious reinterpretation of the classic tiramisu, combining the creaminess of traditional dessert with the unique flavor of famous Raffaello pralines.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500 g mascarpone
- 3 fresh eggs (separated)
- 100 g granulated sugar
- 200 ml heavy cream
- 100 g Raffaello pralines (coarsely chopped)
- 2 cups espresso coffee (cooled)
- 100 g ladyfinger biscuits
- Cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the coffee: Brew espresso coffee and let it cool in a large bowl.
- Whisk the egg yolks: In a large bowl, mix the egg yolks with sugar until obtaining a light and frothy mixture.
- Add the mascarpone: Incorporate the mascarpone into the egg yolk and sugar mixture. Gently mix to avoid lumps until you achieve a smooth cream.
- Beat the egg whites: In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Ensure the bowl is clean for the best results.
- Incorporate the cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold in the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture gently with a spatula.
- Add the beaten egg whites: Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the mascarpone mixture using an under-and-over motion to avoid deflating the mixture.
- Assemble the tiramisu: Begin dipping the ladyfingers into the coffee, ensuring they are soaked but not overly soggy. Layer them in a dish to form an even layer.
- Pour cream and pralines: Add a layer of mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers and sprinkle in some chopped pralines.
- Repeat the layers: Continue layering with another layer of soaked ladyfingers, mascarpone cream, and remaining pralines until all ingredients are used up. Finish with a layer of cream.
- Chill: Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate for at least 240 minutes, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve: Before serving, dust the tiramisu with cocoa powder and garnish with extra pralines, if desired.
Notes
Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and let the tiramisu chill overnight for optimal taste.
