Instructions
-
Prepare the Cream Mixture:
- Begin by separating the egg yolks from the egg whites.
- In a large bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, using an electric mixer.
- In a separate bowl, whip the egg yolks and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold the mascarpone into the yolk mixture, stirring until smooth.
- Carefully fold in the whipped egg whites, using a spatula, ensuring the mixture stays airy and fluffy.
-
Prepare the Soaking Liquid for the Biscuits:
- In a small bowl, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder and sugar.
- Slowly pour in the whole milk, stirring continuously to dissolve the cocoa and sugar completely, ensuring there are no lumps. The result should be a smooth, chocolatey mixture.
-
Assemble the Tiramisù:
- Using a pastry bag (no nozzle needed), place a layer of the mascarpone cream at the bottom of four serving glasses or cups.
- Quickly dip each Pan di Stelle® cookie into the cocoa and milk mixture, one at a time, ensuring they’re lightly soaked but not too soggy.
- Place two of the soaked cookies in each glass, arranging them over the cream.
- Top with more mascarpone cream, smoothing it into an even layer.
- Repeat the process until all the ingredients are used up, finishing with a final layer of cream.
-
Finishing Touches:
- Dust the top of each tiramisù with a light sprinkling of unsweetened cocoa powder for a touch of bitterness that balances the sweetness.
- For a decorative touch, you can stand an unsoaked Pan di Stelle® cookie upright in each glass.
-
Chill and Serve:
- Allow the tiramisù to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to let the flavors meld together.
- Serve chilled, and enjoy the rich, creamy, and indulgent treat!
Tips for a Perfect Tiramisù
- Eggs: Be sure to use fresh eggs, as they play a key role in the texture of the dessert.
- Soaking the Cookies: Don’t over-soak the cookies in the milk and cocoa mixture; a quick dip is enough to get that perfect balance of softness and crunch.
- Chill Time: The longer the tiramisù sits, the better it gets. Letting it chill overnight allows the flavors to develop fully, making it even more delicious!
