Authentic Italian Tiramisu

I got this recipe from an Italian friend, I couldn't be more happy after making the tiramisu this way. I used Nespresso coffee for this one - 2 long and 1 esspresso shot in total. If you don't have nespresso, you can try any strong instant coffee.

Methods

How to make Authentic Italian Tiramisu

1. Take a bowl and add the egg yolks and use this bowl for a double boiler method. Double Boiler method - Take 1/4th cup water in a sauce pan and bring it to boil. Place the bowl with egg yolks over this pan with simmering water on low flame. Make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water.
2. Now with an electric hand mixer whip the egg yolks to get a custard like colour and a creamy texture. While mixing slowly add the sugar. You will have to mix to get a good desired texture.
3. Remove the bowl of egg yolk mix from the pot and let it cool. Once it has cooled down add the mascarpone cheese to this mix and vanilla essence and mix again with the electric hand mixer to get a smooth texture. Mix it for good 10 minutes to get a thick smooth creamy texture.
4. To assemble the Tiramisu - Take 2 cups of black coffee (made with 3 tbsp of coffee powder) in a bowl (it should be at room temperature) and briefly soak each side of the ladyfinger in the coffee (make sure you don't make the ladyfinger to soggy as it will ruin the dessert). Place each soaked lady finger in the pan in which you want to leave the Tiramisu to set in the refrigerator. Layer the entire pan with the coffee soaked lady fingers.
5. Now spread the mascarpone cheese mix on top of the lady fingers. This is the first layer.
6. Add another layer of soaked lady fingers and top it again with more mascarpone cheese cream.
7. Cover the pan with a Cling wrap and place it the fridge for at least 6-8 hours (I place it overnight) to set.
8. Tiramisu tastes best after 2 days in the fridge. You can take it out when you want to eat but it needs good 6-8 hours to set. Once you are ready to eat dust the cream with cocoa powder. Take the cocoa powder in a sieve and dust it generously all over the top layer of the Tiramisu.
