Easy Tiramisu

Easy Tiramisu

Ingredients
1 cup (225ml) heavy whipping cream
1 cup (225g) mascarpone cheese, room temperature
⅓ cup (71g) sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon Amaretto or Coffee liquor(optional)
2 cups (450ml) espresso or strong coffee at room temperature
1 pack Lady Fingers (Boudoir biscuits)
Cocoa powder for dusting the top

Method
Beat whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
Add in mascarpone cheese and amaretto (if using) and continue to whip to stiff peaks.
Dip lady fingers in coffee (and coffee liquor if using) and place in an 8×8 pan to make the first layer – you can fit about 7 cookies in each layer. Don't let them soak as the will fall apart, just a quick dunk in the coffee is enough.
Spread half of the whipped cream mixture on top of first layer of lady fingers. Repeat process with second layer of lady fingers and cream mixture.
Dust the top of dessert with cocoa powder using a sieve. Refrigerate for about 2-4 hours (it gets even better in the fridge and is a perfect make-ahead dessert).
