Spoiling myself with Tiramisu

Another spoilt night of homemade dessert, tonight its the tiramisu. A simple yet delightful dessert that will leave everyone smiling in their sleep.

Serves 2

Ingredients:
6 savoiardi biscuits sponge fingers
1 tablespoon caster sugar
200 gr mascarpone
1 cup of freshly brewed coffee, cooled
1 tablespoon of Kahlua (optional)
1 teaspoon cocoa powder to serve

Method:

Beat the mascarpone and sugar until fluffy. Set aside.

Cut the savoiardi into smaller pieces to fit into the glass.

Dip each savoiardi in the bowl with the coffee (or mixture of the coffee and Kahlua). To get the right amount of coffee on the savoiardi, pull it out before they become too soft.

Arrange a layer of dipped savoiardi across the bottom of the glass. Then spoon a layer of mascarpone mix across the layer of savoiardi.

Dip another layer of savoiardi and lay them on the mascarpone mix. Put the remaining mascarpone mix on it.

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving, preferably overnight.

Once you are ready to serve, dust top with cocoa powder.

This is an easier method compared to my Orange & Green Teamisu which uses cream cheese mix instead of mascarpone.
