Today we will cook tiramisu dessert at home according to the popular Italian recipe... "Airy" cream and a pleasant coffee-almond flavor together form the most delicate delicacy, which will be a great idea for romantic dinner or an original afternoon snack.

According to the classic recipe, tiramisu with mascarpone is prepared, also the obligatory ingredients are eggs, coffee with sweet liqueur, cocoa powder, sugar / powdered sugar and, of course, oblong cookies (savoyardi or "ladies' fingers"). You can make it yourself or find it on sale, but do not try to replace this ingredient with anything, as the taste of the dessert will not be the same.

Ingredients for 2-3 servings:

• cream cheese mascarpone - 250 g;
• - 100 g;
• eggs - 2 pcs.;
• icing sugar - 4 tbsp. spoons;
• cocoa powder - 2-3 tbsp. spoons;
• liqueur "Amaretto" - 1 tbsp. spoon (or almond essence);
• espresso coffee (or regular strong coffee) - 200 ml.

First, a few words about the cream. It is being prepared from raw eggs, so be sure to choose the freshest for tiramisu chicken eggs and wash them thoroughly with soap and water before cooking. Exclude from recipe crude proteins and the yolks will not work, since they give the cream "airiness". If you wish, of course, you can replace the eggs, for example, with whipped cream, but there will be a completely different taste.

1. First of all, we prepare coffee. The classic tiramisu recipe includes espresso in its composition, but there will be nothing wrong if you brew regular strong coffee in a Turk (for 200 ml of water, 2 teaspoons of coffee). Cool the finished drink.

2. Next, we separate the egg whites from the yolks, place them in different containers. Try to protein mass not a drop of yolk or water got in, and also pay attention to the cleanliness of the dishes, since even the smallest speck can disrupt the whipping process. So, let's start working as a mixer. As soon as the mass thickens, add a tablespoon of powdered sugar, gradually increasing the speed of rotation. As a result, the whites must be whipped into a very dense foam so that the finished cream does not spread into the dessert.
   
3. Mix the yolks with the remaining portion of the sweet powder. Beat until a light-colored thickened mass is obtained.
   
4. Gradually mix the mascarpone cheese into the sweet yolk mixture. Add the whipped whites in portions (in 2-3 passes) to the yolks and cheese mass, each time gently stirring from bottom to top. As a result, you need to get a homogeneous and "airy" cream.
   
5. Mix cold coffee with Amaretto. This ingredient gives the dessert an almond flavor. If you do not want to include alcohol in tiramisu, you can replace the liquor with almond essence.
   

   Assembling tiramisu

6. We quickly dip the Savoyardi in aromatic coffee (it is better to dip the cookies not completely, but only on the side with powdered sugar). Next, shake off the excess liquid.
   
7. We spread the soaked Savoyardi on the bottom of a portioned bowl or a transparent glass (if the cookie does not fit entirely, break it into pieces of suitable size). By the way, you can cook tiramisu in one large container, for example, a baking dish, but keep in mind that the dessert is very delicate, so it will be difficult to cut it into beautiful portions. And it is widely believed that among Italians it is considered bad form to cut tiramisu.
   
8. We hide the cookies under a layer of light cream. Next, repeat the layers.
   
9. Cover the surface of the dessert with cocoa powder through a fine sieve, and then tighten the dishes cling film and send it to the refrigerator for several hours (it is better to leave it overnight).

Tiramisu recipe at home

1. Brew coffee or pour boiling water over ground coffee and leave to cool. Add cognac to the cooled coffee - it will add to the dessert unusual taste... Tip: you can do without cognac or use Marsala (wine).

2. Separate the whites from the yolks. With a mixer, beat the whites with some of the sugar until a stable mass is formed. Set the beaten egg whites aside.

3. Separately beat the yolks with the rest of the sugar until it is completely dissolved. As a result, the mass will turn slightly white.

4. Add the Mascarpone cheese to the yolk mass and stir.

5. Whisk the mixture until smooth, but do not interrupt.

6. Add the whipped egg whites to the resulting mass in three steps, each time gently stirring the contents from bottom to top.

7. Ready cream should be airy and uniform. You can put it in the refrigerator for a few minutes, covered with cling film.

8. When the coffee has cooled down and the cream is ready, you can start assembling the cake. In turn, dip each cookie in a quick motion in the coffee. Advice: Savoyardi is very tender biscuits, so do not keep it in coffee for a long time - it will get wet. 2-3 seconds is enough.

9. Place the biscuits tightly into the baking dish, forming a layer - cake.

10. Grease the resulting biscuit layer with some of the cream (1/2). Level well.

11. Then repeat the biscuit layer again, placing the Savoyardi biscuits tightly.

12. Transfer the rest of the cream into a pastry bag with the "Star" attachment. Decorate the top of the cake with cream. Put the finished cake in the refrigerator for several hours so that the cream hardens a little. Tip: it is not necessary to decorate the surface of the cake with “spikes”, you can simply smooth the cream over the entire surface.

13. Powder the surface of the cake with cocoa powder before serving.

14. Serve homemade classic Tiramisu immediately (from the refrigerator) with a cup of coffee.
