Tiramisu’, this is such a simple thing to make, as often with Italian food it’s all down to ingredients and a bit of love.
It pains us to see recipes with creams, custard and other ungodly things, so we decided to give you a real Italian quick recipe.
Get your groove on, and follow this…
The ingredients (serves 6 normal people or 3 Italians):
- 4 Organic eggs, make sure these are real good.
- 25ml of Liquour.Amaretto, Egg Liquour, Brandy etc however we stick with Marsala.
- 100gr of bitter cooking cacao.
- 500gr of Macarpone cheese (usually 2 tubs)
- 150gr of caster sugar (75gr per bowl, you’ll see…)
- Savoiardi biscuits, but if you can..Pavesini. They are the original ones you know??
- COFFEE!!! Now here now surprises, make yourself a full moka pot with a great fresh coffee, we suggest La Classica. Check our other blog post to get the better out of your moka.

Whip the yolks to for a minute before adding 75gr of sugar, then carry on whizzing until you get a mouse (2 minutes).

Now begin adding Mascarpone a bit of the time and continue to whip.The whole 2 tubs guys.Continue to whip until it gets to a semi solid merengue consistency

Add the egg yolks mixture and begin to fold in, carefully.Do not whip, we are wanting to keep the air here.

Place your savoiardi at the bottom of your dish to begin the first layer. If your partner is a bricky, get him/her to help.

The a layer of bitter cacao. Add into a sieve, and tap on the side to make the cacao fall uniformly.

Ta-daaaaaa! Tiramisu, now cover in cling film and refrigerate. A good two hour minimum guys, ideally overnight. Serve and take all the credit coming your way. Salute!!
