The Ultimate Tiramisu Recipe

mascarpone cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: cream cheese

Greek yogurt is lower in fat and calories, while cream cheese is often more affordable.

ladyfingers

🥗Healthier: whole grain ladyfingers

💰Cheaper: sponge cake

Whole grain options provide more fiber, and sponge cake can be a budget-friendly substitute.

Prepare a sous vide water bath at 60 degrees Celsius.

Place 8 egg yolks in a sous vide vacuum seal bag and cook for 30 minutes.

Remove the bag from the water bath and cool the egg yolks in an ice bath or refrigerator.

Brew espresso using 144 grams of ground coffee to make enough liquid for 32 biscuits, aiming for a final volume of 480 ml.

Dilute the brewed espresso with cold water to reach the desired strength of 6% for dipping the ladyfingers.

Dip each ladyfinger briefly in the coffee mixture and layer them in a baking dish.

Spread the cooled egg yolk mixture combined with mascarpone cheese over the first layer of ladyfingers.

Repeat the layering process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the mascarpone mixture.

Dust the top with cocoa powder before serving.
