Tiramisu, Italian Recipe (VIDEO)

Tiramisu, with its potent hits of espresso and alcohol, is the perfect pick me up. In fact, that’s what tiramisu literally means: pick me up.

This classic Italian dessert is a really easy recipe made from just a few simple ingredients. The hardest part is beating the egg yolks and whipping the whites.

Just dip savoiardi (Italian lady-fingers) in strong espresso laced with Marsala wine and line them in a casserole dish. Top with a layer of fluffy mascarpone enriched by bright yellow yolks and lightened by whipped egg whites that are as light as clouds. Repeat and then dust the top with bittersweet cocoa powder. Finish by adding a few curls of dark chocolate to take it over the top. Then comes the best part, the eating!

Tiramisu is a full flavor palette. The strong espresso and sweet Marsala permeate the savoiardi and give them a not too sweet cake texture. The light, sweet mascarpone cream melts in your mouth. The cocoa and nutty dark chocolate caps it all off. Enjoy all the flavors that come together in every single bite.
