Winter Tiramisu Recipe
Servings: 10 - 12
Ingredients
For the Tiramisu:
1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
1/2 cup coffee liqueur (optional)
3 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup mascarpone cheese
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package (24 oz) ladyfinger cookies
For the Blueberry Syrup:
2 cups fresh (or frozen) blueberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the Cinnamon Topping:
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Make the Blueberry Syrup
1. In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, and lemon juice.
2. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the blueberries break down and the mixture thickens (about 10-15 minutes).
3. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain through a fine mesh sieve if desired for a smoother syrup. Set aside.
Prepare the Tiramisu
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and granulated sugar together until pale and creamy.
2. Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese until well combined and smooth.
3. In another bowl, beat the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
4. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until smooth and combined. Set aside.
5. In a shallow dish, combine the cooled coffee and coffee liqueur (if using).
Assemble the Tiramisu
1. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are soaked but not soggy.
2. Layer half of the soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish.
3. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out evenly.
4. Drizzle half of the blueberry syrup over the mascarpone layer.
5. Repeat the layers with the remaining ladyfingers, mascarpone mixture, and top with the remaining blueberry syrup.
Chill and Serve
1. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
2. Before serving, dust the top with ground cinnamon and powdered sugar for an added touch.
3. Slice and serve, enjoying the delightful blend of creamy mascarpone, fresh blueberry syrup, and warming cinnamon. Perfect for winter festivities!
Baker's Tips:
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract to the blueberry syrup while cooking.
You can substitute the blueberries with other berries or fruit preserves for different berry flavors!
