Hi friends! I'm sharing an easy individual tiramisu recipe. For this recipe you'll need a great lady finger cookie. The ones I use are super airy and light. For the coffee element, I use a 50/50 mix of freshly brewed espresso that I cool, and coffee liqueur. Lastly, the most important part, the mascarpone cream. This one is dreamy and light. It's based in a sort of egg yolk custard that is then folded into freshly whipped cream. Lets get into it! MASCARPONE CREAM
Ingredients:
3 egg yolks
100 g granulated sugar
160 g mascarpone
1 C heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla bean paste
1. Fill a medium saucepan with water about half way, and place over medium heat. Let the water come to a light boil.
2. In a medium steel bowl, combine the egg yolks and sugar.
3. Place the bowl over your bain-marie and whisk together.
4. Cook the egg yolk and sugars over low heat, for around 6-8 minutes, until the mixture becomes light and looks paler in colour.
5. Remove from heat and add mascarpone and vanilla bean to the bowl.
6. Using a hand mixer, whip the mascarpone into the egg yolk custard.
7. Once it has fully combined, set aside.
8. In another bowl, add one cup of heavy cream and whip up.
9. When the cream has whipped, fold it into the mascarpone custard in two increments.
10. Fold gently to lose as little air from the whipped cream as possible.
11. Once the mascarpone cream is finished, place it in the fridge to chill for 20-30 minutes before assembling.
