Easy Eggless & Alcohol-Free Tiramisu ♥️ Foolproof Recipe

A weekend without dessert always feels like it is missing something, so let's make a quick and easy tiramisu.

🍞 Ingredients: 1 cup black coffee, heavy whipping cream 235g, softened cream cheese (at room temperature) 225g, sugar 40g, cocoa powder 2 tbsp, ladyfingers 20-24 pieces (I used 20 pieces, adjust flexibly based on your container size), 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional).

🍞 Instructions:

1️⃣ Prepare a cup of black coffee first and let it cool. I used espresso diluted with cooled boiled water. You can also brew a cup with pure instant coffee powder (unsweetened). Set aside.

2️⃣ Grab a container, round or square both work. A regular food storage container is fine. You do not need to line it with parchment paper, though I lined mine today to lift it out easily. The container size is flexible too. Measure against the ladyfingers so one layer fits about 10 pieces flat, or use two smaller containers if needed.

3️⃣ Whip the heavy whipping cream with sugar using a hand mixer for about 4 minutes until semi-solid and thickened. Add the softened cream cheese and mix on low speed until smooth. Set aside.

4️⃣ Stir 1 tsp of vanilla extract into the cooled coffee (omit if you do not have any).

5️⃣ Time to assemble. Dip both sides of each ladyfinger into the coffee quickly, about 2 seconds per side. Do not soak them too long. Arrange a full layer in the container, spread half of the white cream cheese mixture from Step 3 on top, then add a second layer of dipped ladyfingers and finish with the remaining cream mixture. No need to smooth the top perfectly. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.

6️⃣ After 4 hours, take it out of the fridge, dust generously with cocoa powder, and it is ready to serve. You can scoop it straight with a spoon or slice it into pieces.
