Authentic Tiramisu
Get ready I just went to Italy for a week and took cooking classes.
WOW!!!
What a blast.
I ate all week and lost weight.
My theory about eating non processed food has been proven.
If you eat good food you will not gain weight so put down those chips and hot dogs.
This tiramisu was whipped up in ten minutes and was delicious.
This makes enough for four to six people.
4 eggs
4 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extraxt
10 to 12 biscuit cookies or lady fingers
One cup of strong coffee
4 Tablespoons mascarpone
Cocoa powder
You can use sweetened or unsweetened but I use the unsweetened baking cocoa.
One to two tablespoons Amaretto liquor
Take out four to six pretty glasses or any other 3 ounce dish
Separate the egg yolk from the egg white
Whip the whites till they are firm and set aside.
In a separate bowl whip the egg yolks till they are light yellow
Add the sugar and whip till the sugar has completely dissolved and the yolks are like satin.
Add the vanilla
Whip in the mascarpone till everything is smooth
Fold in the whipped egg whites.
Mix the Amaretto and coffee together
Now it is just an assembly process.
Put some of the egg yolk mixture in the bottom of the glass
Dip the biscuit in the coffee mixture and place over the egg mixture
Sprinkle with the cocoa
Repeat the process till everything is used up ending with the egg mixture and then the cocoa.
Cover and place in the refrig for a couple of hours.
Thats it!
I like small dishes because it is a rich dessert but you can make a huge bowl and just serve it with a spoon.
This should be made the same day it is served.
Thank you Alessandros’ Mom.
