Dessert - Tiramisu recipe without mascarpone by Lioara P. - Recipia

I have prepared Tiramisu without mascarpone many times, especially when I didn't feel like looking for special ingredients or wasting a lot of time. It's quick, uncomplicated, and uses only what I have on hand. I love that it doesn't require baking and I can easily adjust the quantities if I have guests or want something sweet for the family. Quick Info Total time: about 30 minutes (+ chilling in the fridge) Preparation time: 25-30 minutes Baking time: no baking required Servings: about 8-10 Difficulty: easy Recipe type: quick dessert, no-bake Ingredients 3 packs of ladyfingers 3 eggs 100 g sugar 250 g whipped cream Coffee (for soaking the ladyfingers) Cocoa powder (for dusting) Preparation method 1. I start with the whipped cream, beating it with a mixer until it becomes firm. If it's not already sweetened, I add sugar to taste. I keep it in the fridge until I need it. 2. I prepare the coffee and let it cool. I use plain coffee, unsweetened, so the ladyfingers don't get too soggy. 3. I separate the eggs. I put the egg whites in a clean bowl and the yolks in another. 4. I beat the egg whites with sugar until they form stiff peaks. Then I gently fold in the egg yolks until well combined. 5. I take the whipped cream out of the fridge and gradually fold it into the egg mixture, being careful not to deflate it. I don't use the mixer here, just a spatula. 6. I prepare the dish and quickly dip the ladyfingers in coffee. I place them in the bottom of the dish, side by side. I don’t soak them too long in the coffee to avoid them falling apart. 7. I add a layer of cream over the ladyfingers and smooth it out. 8. I dust cocoa on top with a fine sieve. 9. I repeat: another layer of soaked ladyfingers, another layer of cream, and more cocoa. I continue until I finish the cream, with the last layer being cream dusted with cocoa. 10. I cover the dish and refrigerate for at least a few hours, ideally overnight, to let the flavors meld. Why I make the recipe often It's the kind of dessert I can make quickly, without special planning. The ingredients are simple, it takes little time, and I don't need mascarpone or other expensive creams. It can be easily adapted based on what I have on hand and works anytime, especially in summer. Tips and variations Tips Use fresh eggs, especially since they are not cooked. The cream should be whipped well, but not excessively, so it doesn't curdle. Don’t soak the ladyfingers too long in coffee, otherwise they will break and the layers won't hold well. Letting the dessert chill in the fridge overnight gives it a more balanced flavor and a better texture. Substitutions If you don’t want to use raw eggs, you can try the recipe with just whipped cream and sugar, but the texture will be less airy. You can use plant-based whipped cream, but the taste will be different. Ladyfingers can be replaced with sponge cake, but the result won't be the same. Simple cocoa can be replaced with dark chocolate powder if you prefer a more intense flavor. Variations You can add a little rum essence to the coffee if you prefer the flavor. If you want it less sweet, reduce the sugar. For a more festive appearance, you can make individual servings in cups. Serving ideas Serve cold, straight from the fridge. You can sprinkle some grated chocolate on top for decoration. It goes well with coffee or as a dessert at the end of a meal. Frequently asked questions 1. Can I use something else instead of eggs? If you don’t want to use raw eggs, you can omit them and use just whipped cream and sugar, but the cream will be denser and less fluffy. 2. How stiff should I whip the cream? The cream should be firm and not runny, but not over-whipped, so it doesn’t curdle or become grainy. 3. Can fruits be added? It’s not traditional, but you can add fresh fruits between layers; however, they will change the final texture and taste. 4. What type of coffee is suitable? Any strong coffee works. Don’t add milk or sugar, otherwise, the ladyfingers will get too soggy. Nutritional values (estimates) One serving (out of 10) has approximately 250-300 kcal. Carbohydrates: 35-40 g Proteins: 4-5 g Fats: 10-12 g The values are indicative and depend on the ladyfingers and the type of whipped cream used. Storage and reheating The mascarpone-free tiramisu can be stored in the fridge, covered, for a maximum of 2 days. It should not be reheated; it is served cold only. If it sits too long, the ladyfingers will get too soggy, and the texture won’t be as good. Ideally, it should be consumed fresh, on the day or the day after preparation.
