From Heavenly Tiramisu. (I use this as a base for my tiramisu but add some secret ingredients and replace others!)
The company that makes this particular brand of cheese (Bel Gioioso, pronounced "bel-joy-oso" Cheese Inc. of Denmark, Wisconsin) put this recipe on the side of its 8-ounce Mascarpone container. They call it their "Famous 'Tiramisu' Dessert Recipe," but then again, I guess every cheese company, every restaurant has a "famous" recipe. This one makes 6 servings
Ingredients
* EGGS, 3 large, with yolks and whites separated
* SUGAR, 1/2 cup
* MASCARPONE, 8 ounces (225g)
* LADYFINGERS, 20
* Espresso or Strong Coffee, 1 cup
* Cognac or Brandy, 2 tablespoons
* COCOA, 1/8 cup
* Vanilla extract, 1 tsp or a pod of real vanilla
Directions
1. Combine 3 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon Espresso, sugar, and Cognac into the large mixing bowl.
2. Beat 2 to 3 minutes
3. Add Mascarpone, vanilla and beat 3 to 5 minutes until consistency is smooth
4. In another bowl, combine 3 egg whites and a pinch of sugar. Beat until mixture forms stiff peaks
5. Gently fold into Mascarpone mixture
6. Pour rest of Espresso into flat dish, dip one side of each Lady Finger, and layer on bottom of serving dish
7. Spread 1/3 of Mascarpone mixture and sprinkle with cocoa
8. Continue layering and finish with a Mascarpone layer
9. Sprinkle and refrigerate 1 hour before serving

I think eggs should be removed from Tiramisu. Can last longer in the fridge that way. :p.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't last very long anyway - gets eaten in days....
ReplyDeleteWhat speed your use to beat the mixture using thermomix? with the butterfly thing?
ReplyDeleteWith the butterfly thing speed 3 for the egg mixture, then pour out. The mascarpone mix should be speed 1 - not too high as it'll separate. Then pour out of thermomis to fold together.
