A yummy and light treat for after dinner. That wonderful coffee taste balanced with a sweet vanilla whipped cream may be the perfect dessert to some.
Ingredients
180g - Espresso (3x 60g shots at a 1:2 ratio)
70g - Pure Cane Sugar
1 tspn - Vanilla
360g - Heavy Whipping Cream (a lil under a 16oz carton ~1.75 c)
230g - Mascarpone Cheese (1x 8oz container)
1 pack - Bonomi Savoiardi Lady Fingers (enough to cover an 8"x8" dish twice)
2 tbsp - Dutch Chocolate High Cacao Cocoa Powder (not the crummy Hershey stuff)
Procedures
Prep
Chill the heavy whipping cream
Let the mascarpone reach room temperature
Extract the espresso
Make Cream Filling
Put the sugar, vanilla, and heavy whipping cream in a bowl, and whisk til the sugar isn't sticking to the bowl
Whisk for ~2-8 min to whip up a thick cream
Fold in the mascarpone with a rubber spatula until homogenous
Make Layer 1
Pour the coffee into a shallow bowl or a plate
One by one, dip the lady fingers on either side into the coffee and lay them along the bottom of your dish. Do NOT soak!!! Lightly dip either side lest you have a pool of espresso by the end not a tiramisu.
Put half the whipped cream on top and smooth it out
Make Layer 2
Repeat making a layer: dip and arrange the fingers (now on top of the previous) and top with whipped cream
