Olive Garden Tiramisu

Ingredients

  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 3 tablespoons coffee liqueur (such as Kahlua)
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 24 ladyfinger cookies
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, combine the cooled coffee and coffee liqueur.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until thick and pale. Stir in the vanilla extract and mascarpone cheese until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  4. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, then fold in the egg whites.
  6. Dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture for a few seconds, allowing them to soak up the liquid, then arrange them in the bottom of a 9x9 inch dish.
  7. Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone mixture.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  9. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve.
