FAQS
How do I make Tiramisu without raw eggs for a safer dessert option?
This Tiramisu recipe is already egg-free, making it a safer option for those concerned about consuming raw eggs. The creamy texture comes from whipped double cream and mascarpone cheese, ensuring a delicious and safe dessert.
What are some good substitutions for mascarpone cheese in Tiramisu?
If you can't find mascarpone cheese, you can substitute it with a mixture of cream cheese and heavy cream. For every cup of mascarpone, use 3/4 cup of cream cheese and 1/4 cup of heavy cream, blended until smooth. This will give you a similar creamy texture for your Tiramisu.
How should I store leftover Tiramisu to keep it fresh?
To store leftover Tiramisu, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. Keep it in the refrigerator, where it can last for up to 3-4 days. Just be sure to enjoy it chilled for the best flavor and texture!
What can I pair with Tiramisu for a complete dessert experience?
Tiramisu pairs wonderfully with a shot of espresso or a glass of dessert wine, such as Vin Santo. You can also serve it alongside fresh berries or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast to the rich flavors of the Tiramisu.
Can I make Tiramisu in advance, and how long does it need to chill?
Yes, Tiramisu is perfect for making in advance! Prepare it a day ahead and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully, resulting in a more delicious dessert.
