Ingredients
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (optional)
- 24 ladyfinger cookies, finely crushed
- Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the Coffee: Stir the cooled coffee and coffee liqueur (if using) into the mixture until well incorporated.
- Crush the Ladyfingers: Finely crush the ladyfingers in a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and using a rolling pin.
- Form the Bites: Scoop a small amount of the mascarpone mixture and roll it into a ball. Coat the ball in the crushed ladyfingers and place on a parchment-lined tray. Repeat with remaining mixture.
- Chill: Refrigerate the tiramisu bites for at least 1 hour to firm up.
- Dust with Cocoa: Right before serving, dust the tops with unsweetened cocoa powder.
Tips for Perfect Bites
- Texture Tip: If the mascarpone mixture is too soft, chill it briefly before shaping the bites.
- Crumb Coating: Ensure the ladyfinger crumbs are very fine for an even coating and a professional finish.
- Storage: Keep tiramisu bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
