Ingredients

  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Amaretto divided
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/2 cups espresso or strong brewed coffee
  • 24 ladyfinger cookies
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Beat together mascarpone cheese, 1 tablespoon Amaretto and sugar until smooth.
  • In another bowl beat heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
  • Add mascarpone mixture to whipped cream and beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Dip the lady fingers into the brewed espresso 1 at a time. Do this quickly, do not let them soak.
  • Place 8 - 9 lady fingers in the bottom of an 8x8 (or similarly size) pan. Top with 1/3 of the mascarpone whipped cream. Repeat 2 more times ending with whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
  • After the tiramisu has chilled, sprinkle with 2 - 3 tablespoons cocoa powder. I like to use a mesh sieve for this.

Notes

Do not let the lady fingers soak in the espresso or they will break down. 
Keep any leftovers in the refrigerator.
