How to Make Tiramisu!! Classic Italian Dessert Recipe



Learn how to make tiramisu, the classic Italian dessert! Layers of a decadent mascarpone cheese mixture and lady fingers soaked in espresso and Kahlua. Dessert doesn’t get any better than this!!

What you’ll need:
6 oz water
2 rounded tsp instant espresso powder
50mL Kahlua
6 large egg yolks
1 cup white sugar
2 Tbsp milk
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
8 oz mascarpone cheese
(2) 3.5oz boxes Lady Finger cookies
unsweetened cocoa powder

In a small bowl, bring water to a boil and add in espresso powder. Whisk until dissolved and add in Kahlua. Set aside to cool.

In a double boiler or bain marie, combine egg yolks, sugar and milk. While whisking constantly, cook for 8-10 minutes to cook the egg yolks. Mixture should be smooth but not all sugar will dissolve. This is okay. Set aside and let cool. Once cool, transfer to a large bowl and add in room temperature mascarpone cheese. Mix well until smooth.

In a stand mixer or large bowl with a hand mixer, combine heavy cream and vanilla and mix on medium-high speed until a stiff whipped cream is made. Be careful as to not mix too long or you’ll get butter. Add to cooled egg and mascarpone mixture and fold gently to incorporate.

To assemble the tiramisu, dunk lady fingers into espresso mixture for 2-3 seconds and line the bottom of a 9″x9″ baking dish with them. Spread half of mascarpone mixture on top, repeat another layer of soaked lady fingers and then spread remainder of mascarpone mixture on top. Cover and refrigerate for AT LEAST 8 hours! It’s best to let sit 24-48 hours. To serve, slice and plate and dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder. Makes 9 servings. Enjoy!!

  1. I just wanted say thank you so much for making me lose the fear over making tiramisu; I always thought it was very hard to make but I saw your video and it got me inspired. I made it two days ago and it’s yummyyyy, so smooth and all the flavors are right on point, when my boyfriend tried it said “wow”and it made me happy 😍 my first tiramisu ever, I am like a baby with her first blanki, yayyyyy 😃😍

  2. I tried making tiramisu for the first time and I’m not lying to y’all but it was soooooo goooood my mom and sis loved it. I followed it’s step by step except during the coffee brew I added bit of sugar and instead of cocoa at the top I added half cocoa and coffee powder for more taste it was great must try this 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

  3. I made your recipe for one of my twins’ 29th birthday party. It came out perfect; even people who swore they didn’t like tiramisu, loved it.
    I made my own marscapone cheese and homemade lady fingers; which sounds really intimidating but It wasn’t so bad. It takes a little extra preparation, but it’s worth it. I prefer baking/cooking with organic ingredients and that’s why I chose to make the marscapone cheese and ladyfingers. I just made it again, 2 days later bc my other twin is coming into town today. Tiramisu is her favorite, so we’ll see what she thinks.
    Thank you again!🎉
