My 15-minute Easy Tiramisu is a flavorful no-bake dessert that literally melts in your mouth. A rich and creamy mascarpone cheese filling is layered with coffee soaked ladyfingers, and best of all, no raw eggs required!
Using either a stand mixer with a whip attachment, or a handheld electric mixer on high speed, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks.
Reduce the mixer speed to medium, slowly add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Mix for 1 to 1 ½ minutes.
Lower the mixer speed to low and add in the mascarpone cheese. Mix just until all the ingredients are incorporated. Set this aside.
In a small shallow bowl, add the cold espresso, or strong cold coffee. If you are using the coffee flavored liqueur, stir it in with the espresso.
Dip both sides, do not soak, each lady finger in the espresso mixture.
Lay the dipped lady fingers in a single layer in the bottom of an 8x8 baking dish.
Using a silicone spatula, evenly spread half of the cheese mixture on top of the lady fingers layer.
Repeat the dipped lady fingers layer, and the remaining half cheese mixture layer.
Using a fine sifter, dust the top of the cheese mixture with the cocoa powder. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to overnight.
