Description
Classic Italian Tiramisu au Nutella elevates traditional dessert with creamy mascarpone and rich chocolate hazelnut spread. Quick five-minute preparation delivers luxurious comfort you’ll savor without complicated techniques.
Ingredients
Scale
- 250 g (8.8 oz) mascarpone cheese
- 150 ml (5.1 fl oz) cold coffee (or milk for a softer version)
- 12 ladyfingers (or speculoos cookies for more flavor)
- 3 tbsps Nutella (or spread of choice)
- 2 tbsps powdered sugar
- Cocoa powder, for decoration
- Crushed hazelnuts or chocolate shavings (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Blend Cream: Whisk mascarpone and powdered sugar until velvety, then gently fold Nutella into the mixture, creating a luxurious, glossy cream.
- Layer Foundation: Quickly dunk biscuits into coffee or milk, arranging them as the initial base within serving glasses or a serving dish.
- First Cream Application: Generously spread the Nutella mascarpone cream over the moistened biscuits, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Secondary Biscuit Layer: Carefully position additional coffee-soaked biscuits atop the initial cream layer, maintaining a consistent arrangement.
- Final Cream Finish: Crown the dessert with a sumptuous, smooth layer of Nutella mascarpone cream, creating an elegant, uniform surface.
- Decorative Dusting: Using a fine mesh sieve, delicately sprinkle cocoa powder across the top for a refined aesthetic.
- Optional Garnish: Enhance the presentation by scattering crushed hazelnuts or chocolate shavings, adding textural intrigue and visual dimension.
- Serving Recommendation: Enjoy immediately or chill for one hour to develop a more decadent, firmer consistency.
Notes
- Customize Coffee Strength: Adjust coffee intensity to match personal taste, using espresso for robust flavor or milder coffee for gentle undertones.
- Control Biscuit Dipping: Briefly dip biscuits into coffee to prevent sogginess, ensuring they maintain structural integrity and don’t become overly saturated.
- Balance Cream Consistency: Gently fold Nutella into mascarpone to create a smooth, even mixture without deflating the cream’s airy texture.
- Enhance Chilling Time: Refrigerate for at least an hour to allow flavors to meld and develop a richer, more cohesive dessert experience.
