Tiramisu

I enjoy when my brother comes around for a dinner. It is so much fun! The other day I asked him what would like for a desert this time. It was Tiramisu again 🙂 Served with sweet white vine is not that bad…

I loved BIG blackboards since I was little. When I’ll have mine each child’s room will have one wall completely covered with it. There is a specific reason for that 🙂 As a kid I loved to draw. My parents frequently bought me a new set of colors and paper bouquet but I was out of paper pretty soon. Without paper I had to continue on my room’s walls 🙂 Which means we repaint in at least every 3 months 🙂

As I don’t like raw eggs, I am so thankful for that recipe:

3 egg yolks
4 spoons sugar
pinch of salt
6 spoons Marsala 
2 cups mascarpone cheese
1 cup whipped cream (optional) 

Mix egg yolks, sugar, salt and vine in a large bowl. Cook it on a water bath for about 15 minutes. Use whisk to mix it all the time. Make sure that water is not too hot as you don’t want scramble eggs at the end but nicely cooked cream. Cool it down, then mix mascarpone cheese into it. Adding whipped cream is up to you.

You’ll also need 1 large packet of sponge fingers/ladyfingers, 2 cups of strong coffee, 2 vanilla sugars and chocolate shaves to decorate.

Have a nice evening!

  1. Ooooo – looks scrumptious! I found a small carton of tiramisu cheese in the supermarket a few weeks ago. It was coffee-flavored mascarpone mostly, but it went great on my cinnamon rolls, which are not terribly sweet. Also good spread on Graham crackers. When the cinnamon rolls get more than a few days old, I slice them thinly and slow bake them in the toaster oven until they are crispy. They keep really well this way and make a great snack. Now, back to the tiramisu cheese – these little cinnamon crisps were just the thing to poke into that luscious dip.

    1. Thank you judilyn! Cinnamon crisps and tiramisu cheese sound lika a great combination 😉
