Heavenly Tiramisu The Real Thing In Its Original Version Recipes

HEAVENLY TIRAMISU (THE REAL THING! IN ITS ORIGINAL VERSION!)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until well blended. Whisk in milk and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Boil gently for 1 minute, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Cover tightly and chill in refrigerator 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, beat cream with vanilla until stiff peaks form. Whisk mascarpone into yolk mixture until smooth.
• In a small bowl, combine coffee and rum. Split ladyfingers in half lengthwise and drizzle with coffee mixture.
• Arrange half of soaked ladyfingers in bottom of a 7x11 inch dish. (If you don't have that, use a 9 (or 10) inch round springform pan.) Spread half of mascarpone mixture over ladyfingers, then half of whipped cream over that. Repeat layers and sprinkle with cocoa. Cover and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours, until set.

HEAVENLY EGGLESS TIRAMISU RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• 1. Mix the espresso with the coffee liqueur; chill. 2. Melt the chocolate with 1/2 cup cream over a double boiler; cool. 3. Whip the remaining 1/2 cup cream (or 3/4 cup but remember more cream will give volume but dilute the flavor of the mascarpone) until stiff. 4. Using a hand-held whisk (a stand mixer will be too strong), whip the mascarpone with the sugar and rum until just mixed. Do not over whisk or the cheese will curdle. Fold the whipped cream into the cheese mixture. Chill until firm. 5. If using a sponge cake, cut into 3 layers about 1 cm thick. I used to cut the cake into 1/2 cm layers and sandwiched them with chocolate ganache. The result was the best tiramisu ever but was too much work because the thin sponge layers broke easily. 6. Lay a layer of 10 sponge fingers into a glass dish or bowl (or a slice of sponge cake on a serving plate), spoon about 1/3 of the espresso over the fingers to soak. Spread 1/3 of the chocolate ganache over the cake and then spread 1/3 of the mascarpone mixture over. Repeat and end with a layer of mascarpone. 7. Sieve a thick layer of choc powder over the tiramisu and/or garnish with choc shavings. Chill overnight or at least 12 hours.

CLASSIC TIRAMISU

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with half the sugar until pale and doubled in volume (the mixture will maintain a "ribbon" when folded over itself), 3 to 5 minutes. Add the mascarpone in 2 or 3 additions, whisking well to combine. Add the liquor, if using, and whisk to combine.
• 2. In a clean bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the egg whites and remaining sugar to soft peaks. Fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture in two or three additions.
• 3. In a roughly 6-by-9-inch casserole or plate with a border, spread about one third of the mascarpone cream into an even layer. Soak each individual cookie in the coffee and arrange them very tightly on top until the cream is completely covered. Spoon the remaining cream over the cookies, spreading it into an even layer.
• 4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days to set the cream. Just before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder.

CLASSIC ITALIAN TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Carefully separate whites from yolks.
• Beat yolks with 3 tbsp of sugar in a large bowl, add mascarpone, mix with a blender on low speed until the mass is homogeneous and creamy. Clean the blender.
• Whisk the whites with the remaining sugar with a blender in a medium-sized bowl until little peaks are firm enough not to fall (like for meringue); carefully incorporate the white mixture into the mascarpone mix;.
• Combine the alcohol with coffee in a shallow bowl. Quickly dip each Savoiardi into the coffee mix and lay out in a single layer at the bottom of a large baking pan (glass works best, as it allows to see the layers). Cover the fist layer with half the cheese mixture. Lay another layer of dipped Savoiardis on top and cover with the remaining mascarpone mix. Put the cocoa in a small sieve and dust the top of the cake.
• Decorate with choco chips or chocolate shavings.
• Refrigerate overnight or for 4-5 hours before enjoying. Buon appetito!
