Tiramisu - The Easy Way

Tiramisu is one of those desserts that has the elegance and class of gourmet, and the mystique and essence of being a talented baker. With this recipe, you can make tiramisu to impress your family and friends.

These can be found at your local liquor shop and s
For your ingredients, you will need:

  • 2 cups strong black coffee
  • 1/2 cup marsala
  • 3 eggs, yolk separated
  • 1/3 cup caster sugar
  • 250grams marscapone
  • 300ml thickened cream
  • 2 large packets of sponge fingers


To make the tiramisu, you:

  1. Prepare the black coffee and add the marsala. Mix these two together and set aside.
  2. Beat the yolks together with the caster sugar until it is pale and thick. Whip the thickened cream together. Add the marscapone, whipped cream and mix together gently until almost combined.
  3. Separate the eggs and set aside your egg whites. - It's easier to move the egg in between the egg shells over a bowl until the whites have dissipated -.
  4. Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Once this has happened, fold the eggwhites into the egg yolk mixture.
  5. Dip the biscuits into the coffee and marsala mixture that you had set aside and lay them down in your baking dish. - Be careful while you do this, as the biscuits become very soft and easily breakable once dipped in the liquid -. Place the cream mixture over the layer of biscuits, place more biscuits on top of that layer, and so on until the baking dish is full, and ending with the cream on top.
  6. Cover the dish with cling wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours. – 4 – 6 hours is the optimum time frame for chilling.
  7. Once you have chilled the tiramisu, garnish with a chocolate covering. – I find that Cadbury’s Flake is perfect for garnishing.
Bon Appetit!
