Time 4h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup granulated sugar
5 tablespoons amaretto liqueur
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces whipped topping
24 ladyfingers
3/4 cup strong coffee
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • Beat together cream cheese and sugar in medium-size bowl until light and creamy, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in amaretto and vanilla.
  • Fold whipped topping into cream-cheese mixture.
  • Arrange half of ladyfingers in dish just large enough to hold them in one layer, such as a 9 x 9-inch casserole dish. Sprinkle with half the coffee. Top with half the cream-cheese mixture, spreading smooth. Sprinkle with half the cocoa. Arrange the remaining ladyfingers over cocoa. Sprinkle with remaining coffee. Top with remaining cream-cheese mixture, smoothing the top. Sprinkle with remaining cocoa.
  • Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and sliced almonds.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose fresh eggs, heavy cream, and mascarpone cheese.
  • Make sure the mascarpone cheese is at room temperature before using it. This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients.
  • Beat the egg yolks and sugar together until they are thick and pale yellow. This will help to incorporate air into the mixture and make the tiramisu light and fluffy.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture gently. Do not overmix, or the tiramisu will become too dense.
  • Soak the ladyfingers in the coffee mixture briefly. Do not soak them for too long, or they will become too soggy.
  • Layer the tiramisu in a serving dish. Start with a layer of ladyfingers, then a layer of the mascarpone mixture, and then a layer of cocoa powder. Repeat this process until all of the ingredients have been used.
  • Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the tiramisu to set.
