The Ultimate Chocolate Tiramisu You Need to Try

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

dark chocolate

🥗Healthier: cacao nibs

💰Cheaper: milk chocolate

Cacao nibs offer health benefits with less sweetness.

Mix cocoa powder with warm milk and then add cold milk to cool it down.

Separate 6 eggs, keeping the yolks for the tiramisu and setting the whites aside for another recipe.

Add sugar to the egg yolks, using one tablespoon of sugar per egg.

Set up a double boiler (bain-marie) with boiling water and place the egg yolk and sugar mixture on top to pasteurize the eggs without cooking them.

Add vanilla extract to the egg mixture and whisk while heating for about 5-6 minutes until the color lightens and volume increases.

Remove the egg mixture from heat and let it cool down.

Whip cold double cream until soft peaks form, being careful not to overwhip it into butter.

Add more vanilla extract to the whipped cream for additional flavor.

Mix mascarpone cheese into the whipped cream gently using a spatula.

Combine the cooled pasteurized egg mixture with the mascarpone and whipped cream, mixing until smooth and no lumps remain.

Taste the mixture for sweetness and adjust sugar if necessary.

Dip savoiardi biscuits into the chocolate milk mixture, ensuring they absorb enough liquid, and layer them in a dish.

Spread a generous layer of the cream mixture over the soaked biscuits, ensuring even coverage.

Repeat the layering process with more dipped biscuits and cream until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cream on top.
