Ingredients
Scale
Ladyfinger Layer:
- 24 ladyfinger cookies (savoiardi)
Coffee Mixture:
- 1 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee (cooled)
- 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)
Mascarpone-Dulce de Leche Cream:
- 1 cup dulce de leche
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 (8 oz) tub mascarpone cheese (room temperature)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Layering and Garnish:
- 1/2 cup crushed shortbread cookies
- Cocoa powder and chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Whip Cream: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
- Prepare Mascarpone Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix the mascarpone with the dulce de leche until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped cream until combined.
- Layer Tiramisu: Dip ladyfingers in coffee mixture and layer them in a dish. Spread mascarpone mixture over ladyfingers and sprinkle with shortbread crumbs. Repeat layers.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Dust with cocoa powder and top with chocolate shavings before serving.
Notes
- This tiramisu gets its ‘millionaire’ twist from the addition of dulce de leche and buttery shortbread.
- For an alcohol-free version, skip the coffee liqueur and add a splash of vanilla or caramel extract to the coffee.
