Steps:
- Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 2 1/2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, then stir in espresso and coffee liqueur; let coffee syrup cool. Line a 10-by-5-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving a 4-inch overhang on both long sides of the pan.
- Spread 1/2 vanilla ice cream in bottom of prepared pan. Working quickly, dip 15 ladyfingers, one at a time, in coffee syrup and arrange in a single layer, overlapping slightly, over ice cream. (If ice cream is too soft, return to freezer to firm.) Spread coffee ice cream evenly over ladyfingers. Tap pan against counter to release any air bubbles. Repeat dipping process with remaining 15 ladyfingers and coffee syrup, and arrange on top of coffee ice cream. Spread remaining vanilla ice cream evenly over ladyfingers. Fold over plastic wrap to cover cake. Freeze until firm, at least 5 hours or overnight.
- To unmold, let cake stand at room temperature for a few minutes. Unwrap plastic from top and invert cake onto a platter; press a warm damp towel on sides and bottom of loaf pan to release cake, if needed. Remove plastic, then return cake to freezer.
- Combine egg whites and remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar in a heatproof standing mixer bowl. Set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisking until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm to touch, 3 to 3 1/2 minutes.
- Attach bowl to standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on low speed, gradually increasing speed to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 10 minutes. Add vanilla and cornstarch, and mix meringue until combined.
- Remove cake from freezer. Using an offset spatula, spread with meringue, swooping decoratively into peaks, as desired. Hold a small handheld kitchen torch at a 90-degree angle 3 to 4 inches from surface of meringue. Move flame back and forth until meringue is browned and caramelized is spots. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Draw two 13-by-4-inch rectangular templates on each of two pieces of parchment paper; place on rimmed baking sheets; set aside. Prepare a large pastry bag with a 1/2-inch tip, and set aside.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk yolks, 10 tablespoons granulated sugar, and vanilla using high speed on an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, until mixture is thick and pale, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add flour, folding in gently; set aside. Using electric mixer, whisk egg whites until frothy. While whisking, gradually add remaining 1 tablespoon sugar; beat until stiff, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold 1/3 of whites into reserved yolk mixture to lighten, then fold in remaining whites until just incorporated.
- Fill pastry bag with batter, and pipe ladyfingers, 1/2 inch thick, between the short lines drawn on parchment paper. Using a fine mesh sieve, generously dust ladyfingers with confectioners' sugar, and allow the sugar to soak in, about 3 minutes. Place in oven and bake, rotating trays once, until light golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool and dry out slightly, at least 2 hours. Remove from parchment paper.

Steps:
- Prepare cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9-inch square baking pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and butter again. Flour pan and set aside.
- Sift flour and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Combine egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on high speed until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Wash and dry the mixer bowl and whisk and return to the stand. Combine egg whites and salt in the bowl; beat on medium speed until whites hold soft peaks, 1 1/2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar while the mixer is running. Continue beating until stiff and glossy, about 1 minute. Fold the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Fold in the flour-cornstarch mixture in 3 batches. Transfer batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare syrup: Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in espresso and coffee-flavored liqueur. Set aside to cool.
- Prepare ice cream layer: Use a serrated knife to cut cooled cake in half horizontally, making 2 layers. Place one layer in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan. Brush the top with 3/4 cup cooled syrup, then sift 2 tablespoons ground espresso over top.
- Place espresso ice cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until ice cream is spreadable. Spread ice cream over cake, then top with second layer of cake. Brush with remaining syrup and place cake in the freezer for 20 minutes.
- Remove cake from the freezer and sift remaining espresso over top.
- Place coffee ice cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until ice cream is spreadable. Spread ice cream over cake, forming large swirls. Return to the freezer and freeze until completely hard, at least 2 hours.
- To serve, garnish with chocolate curls.

Tips:
- Make sure the ladyfingers are fresh and crispy. You can make your own ladyfingers or buy them from the store. If you are making your own, be sure to follow the recipe carefully. If you are buying them from the store, check the expiration date to make sure they are fresh.
- Use a good quality mascarpone cheese. Mascarpone cheese is the key ingredient in tiramisu, so it is important to use a good quality cheese. Look for mascarpone cheese that is thick and creamy, with a slightly tangy flavor.
- Don't overbeat the egg whites. When you are making the filling for the tiramisu, be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make the filling too stiff.
- Let the tiramisu rest before serving. After you have assembled the tiramisu, let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will allow the flavors to meld and the tiramisu to set properly.
- Serve the tiramisu cold. Tiramisu is best served cold. You can serve it directly from the refrigerator, or you can let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Tiramisu ice cream cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, crispy ladyfingers, and rich coffee flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dessert to make, give tiramisu ice cream cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
