Ultimate Tiramisu Cake Recipe !

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups strong black coffee, room temperature
• 1 1/2 tablespoons espresso powder
• 9 tablespoons dark rum
• 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
• 6 large egg yolks
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon table salt
• 1 1/2lbs mascarpone cheese (chilled below room temperature)
• 3/4 cup heavy cream, cold
• 14oz hard ladyfingers (about 40-60 depending on size)
• 3 /12 tablespoons cocoa
• 1/4 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate

Directions

• Stir together coffee, espresso powder, vanilla extract, and 5 tablespoons rum in a wide bowl or baking dish until espresso dissolves. Set aside.

• In a large bowl, beat together the yolks until just combined. Add sugar and salt and whisk together until a pale yellow, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the remaining 4 tablespoons rum and beat until just combined. Add the mascarpone and continue to beat until no lumps remain.

• In another large bowl, beat the cream hard until the cream begins to hold stiff peaks. Using a rubber spatula, fold one-third of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture to lighten. Fold the remaining whipped cream into the mascarpone until there are no more white streaks.

• Working one at a time, quickly drop half of the ladyfingers into the coffee mixture, roll, then remove and transfer them to a 9″x13″ baking dish. (Don’t submerge the ladyfingers. You want them to take in a little of the coffee mixture, but not drown in it. The coffee should coat the edges but not be soaked into the middle.

• Arrange the cookies in a single layer in the baking dish, breaking or trimming the ladyfingers as needed to fit properly.

• Spread half the mascarpone over the ladyfingers, and use a rubber spatula to spread the mixture to the edges and corners.

• Place 2 tablespoons of the cocoa in a fine mesh strainer and dust the cocoa over the mascarpone.

• Repeat the dipping and arrangement with the remaining ladyfingers, mascarpone, and remaining cocoa. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours before serving.

Enjoy!
