Tiramisu is an iconic dessert, often associated with special moments, gatherings with friends, or celebrations. While the traditional recipe with mascarpone is beloved for its creamy texture and refined taste, today we present a quicker version using Dr. Oetker cream. With a delicious flavor that successfully mimics the classic dessert, this tiramisu is perfect for those times when you want to impress without spending hours in the kitchen.

Ingredients

- 3 packs of Dr. Oetker Tiramisu Cream
- 600 ml of cold milk
- Approximately 350 g of ladyfingers (according to the packaging, 3 rows from a large pack)
- 400 ml of coffee (freshly brewed)
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- 2 teaspoons of rum essence
- Cocoa for decoration

Step by Step

Step 1: Preparing the coffee
Start by brewing 400 ml of coffee. Add the 2 teaspoons of sugar and the 2 teaspoons of rum essence, stirring well. Let the coffee cool to room temperature. A well-brewed coffee will significantly impact the final taste of the tiramisu, so don’t rush!

Step 2: Preparing the cream
In a large bowl, add 600 ml of cold milk. Open the 3 packs of Dr. Oetker Tiramisu Cream and pour the contents over the milk. Use a spoon to mix the ingredients, then use an electric mixer to beat the cream on high speed for about 3 minutes. You will notice how the cream becomes fluffy and airy.

Step 3: Assembling the tiramisu
Now it’s time to assemble the tiramisu. Take a tray (preferably rectangular) and start by placing a first layer of ladyfingers. Dip each ladyfinger in the cold coffee, making sure not to soak them for too long to avoid disintegration. Place an even layer of ladyfingers on the bottom of the tray. Continue to line the sides of the tray with soaked ladyfingers.

Step 4: The cream layer
After the first layer of ladyfingers, pour some of the prepared cream. Spread the cream evenly using a spatula. Repeat the process by adding another layer of soaked ladyfingers and then another layer of cream. Finish with a final layer of cream.

Step 5: Decoration
Sprinkle a generous layer of cocoa on top of the tiramisu. Give it an elegant touch by using a fine sieve to distribute the cocoa evenly. The cocoa not only enhances the appearance but also adds a delicious contrast to the sweetness of the cream.

Step 6: Cooling
Cover the tray with plastic wrap and place the tiramisu in the refrigerator for at least 4-6 hours, preferably overnight. This cooling time will help the flavors blend perfectly and transform the tiramisu into a fine and savory dessert.

Helpful Tips

- Coffee: Use high-quality coffee, preferably espresso, to achieve an intense flavor.
- Ladyfingers: You can use store-bought ladyfingers, but if you want a more personalized version, try making them at home.
- Variations: If you love chocolate, you can add chocolate chips between the layers of cream. Also, for a more exotic taste, you can replace the rum essence with vanilla or almond essence.
- Serving: Tiramisu pairs perfectly with a glass of sweet wine or strong black coffee.
