Authentic Italian Rich Tiramisu for Valentine's Day
I was reading through an Italian book, and I found this rich tiramisu recipe that was home cooked in Italy. I left the steps as-is, but modified the ingredient ratio to make it easier to make and adjusted the sweetness, and decreased the alcohol content.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
You will need 3 bowls, an electric hand mixer, and a whisk. I recommend making this the day before serving.
* Step 2
In the first bowl, add the egg yolks and sugar and mix with an electric hand mixer until the batter turns white.
* Step 3
In the second bowl, add the egg whites and whip with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
* Step 4
In the third bowl, add the heavy cream and whip with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. (Be careful not to over-whisk the cream, otherwise it will dry out.)
* Step 5
From this point on, set aside the electric hand mixer, change to a whisk and mix gently and carefully. To the first bowl, add the mascarpone cheese and mix until the mixture is smooth.
* Step 6
Once the mixture is smooth, add the egg whites and mix. Add the whipped cream and gently mix until the batter is evenly mixed.
* Step 7
Add the rum and mix some more. (If serving to children, you can omit the rum.) The cream is ready.
* Step 8
Dissolve the ☆ sugar in the espresso and add the ☆ milk. Pour into a container with a flat bottom. (The container should be large enough so that a ladyfinger fits.)
* Step 9
Espresso machines are handy to have at home but if you don't have one, you can grab a freshly brewed cup at Starbucks or other coffee shops. (It's fine even if it's cold.)
* Step 10
Take one ladyfinger at a time between your fingers, soak in the espresso for a second, lift out immediately, and align the biscuits in a glass container.
* Step 11
Since ladyfingers are very light, they will melt and fall apart if you soak them for too long. Try to soak them for just a second.
* Step 12
After you align the ladyfingers in a container, pour the cream over and smooth out the top.
* Step 13
Cover with plastic wrap and let sit in the refrigerator overnight. The moisture in the cream will soften the biscuits and they'll taste really good.
* Step 14
The next day, sprinkle cocoa powder through a tea strainer just before serving, and it's done.
* Step 15
Even if you don't have time to let it sit overnight, let it sit at least for 3 hours in the refrigerator.
* Step 16
I recommend Bambini biscuits for the ladyfingers! Where I live, you can buy these in imported food stores.
