Tiramisu - replace cheese with cream! Homemade tiramisu cake

Tiramisu is an extremely tasty and beautiful dessert, known all over the world. It is easy to prepare, but the ingredients for its preparation must be exactly as needed, otherwise the taste will turn out completely different. Although, if this is not important for you, you can experiment, for example, by replacing mascarpone with cottage cheese with cream, and savoiardi with sponge cake.

Ingredients:

4 egg yolks;

1/4 cup sugar;

1/4 cup Kahlua or other coffee liqueur;

A pinch of salt;

220 g mascarpone cheese;

300 g savoiardi cookies (for a baking tray 20x20 cm);

1 tbsp. heavy cream;

2 glasses of freshly prepared espresso coffee;

2 tbsp. cocoa powder or grated dark chocolate.


How to make tiramisu

Preparing the cream

Add the yolks, coffee liqueur, sugar, and salt to the saucepan. Place in a steam bath.

Whisk this mixture for 6 minutes until it thickens. This is perhaps the most difficult work in the entire preparation of dessert - constantly whisking the mass in a steam bath.

Note: When you lift the whisk above the bowl, the liquid should drain from it, and ribbons should appear on the surface of the mixture (see photo). Don't worry if the ribbons disappear after a second - the mixture is ready to use. After it cools, its consistency will become normal for making dessert.

In order for the eggs to cook (if you need to exclude salmonella contamination), the temperature of the mixture must reach 70 degrees. Six minutes will be enough for this.

Remove the finished mixture from the bath and place on ice to cool. Stir occasionally.

Now to prepare the tiramisu cream, you need to mix the cream with mascarpone cheese using a mixer.

Using a whisk attachment, beat the mixture until stiff peaks appear.

When the egg mixture has cooled completely, add the mascarpone to it in three additions.

Stir until smooth, without lumps.

Preparing dessert

Sometimes it is not easy to get savoiardi cookies, as they are not sold on every corner, like crackers or simple shortbread cookies. But you can bake it yourself using the appropriate recipe. Recipes may vary. The cookies turn out soft or hard, crispy. This master class uses crispy cookies. They need to be dipped in coffee. If your cookies are biscuit-type, then lay them out and sprinkle with coffee so that they absorb the required amount.

Note: If you get a crispy savoiardi, you can remove the tiramisu from the refrigerator after about six hours and “crunch”. Do you like a soft dessert? Then leave it in the refrigerator for a day. Since the cream will saturate the cookies almost completely, this will make the tiramisu very soft and tender.

So let's get back to the process. Then let it cool, and, dipping one cookie into it, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet in rows.

Note: the amount of ingredients is calculated for a 20x20 cm baking sheet. But you can use a different size. You just need to trim the cookies to the shape of the baking sheet. If the cookies break when cutting, it’s okay - it won’t change the taste of the dessert.

Spread one third of the cream over the first cookie layer.

Sprinkle with cocoa or grated chocolate.

Do a similar operation with the second layer.

You can carefully spread the last third of the cream on top of the third layer, or you can...

...squeeze it onto the cookies in the form of exquisite droplets using a pastry syringe. Just to make the droplets look like in the photo, you need to leave a little more than a third of the cream.

Sprinkle cocoa or grated chocolate on top again.

It is recommended to use cocoa to decorate the last layer. It looks neater and gives the dessert an airier feel. But you have the right to use grated chocolate. Try making tiramisu with mascarpone, sprinkling it with cocoa, and next time try sprinkling it with grated chocolate. Over time, you will choose the option that suits you best.

Place the dessert in the refrigerator to soak for 24 hours.

The result is 8-10 servings of a delicate, coffee-creamy dessert with a pleasant cocoa aroma. The dessert does not need to be baked in the oven, which makes it an honor in the summer. This does not apply to the case when you bake savoiardi cookies yourself.

Note: Since a party or birthday will require more servings, you can make 2 or 3 trays of tiramisu, doubling or tripling the ingredients.

Now enjoy your creation!

Look how the cream has soaked in! How delicious it all looks!

So, who took it without permission!?

You will find another option for preparing this delicious dessert.

Masha 09.12.12
I've been wanting to make Tiramisu for a long time. I specifically went to the store to buy mascarpone cheese, and when I bought it, I felt sorry for the money. The cheese tastes almost the same as our homemade cream, which can be cut with a knife. So don’t fool yourself in search of foreign cheese; it’s better to go to the market for cream. And the cake turned out delicious, thank you.

Lilia 03/12/13
I wouldn't put in raw eggs.

Alyona
Of course, if you are not sure about the product, it is better to prepare it with whipped cream. If the eggs are homemade and not from the market, then you can treat yourself to a delicacy))). Personally, having tried both recipes, I prefer Tiramisu with cream; this cream prepares much faster, and the taste is small.

Natalia 05.11.13
I’ve never tried this Italian cake, but I’ve always wanted to. I saw descriptions of the preparation on the Internet, but they were all quite complicated, the ingredients were such that we couldn’t find them in stores. But I liked this option, it’s affordable, and I think it’s delicious, I’ll definitely make it.

Alina 11/24/13
I've been wanting to try making teramisu for a long time. And for the first time I see teramisa with cream. I would really like to try it, but where do you get 30% fat cream? We don't sell these.

Alyona
Alina, to whip cream, it is not at all necessary to use cream with strictly 30% fat content. For Tiramisu, cream of 33% fat content (Bely Gorod brand) or 38% fat content (Valio brand) is quite suitable; the well-known President brand has cream, which is called Whipping cream, 1 liter package. When choosing cream, pay attention to freshness. It is important that the cream is fresh and has a fat content of at least 30%.

Elya 12/18/13
I have long dreamed of making such a cake myself, I liked it too much. So I prepared it for the first time according to the first simple recipe, which is with cream. Everything worked out! The relatives are happy, they ate it in one go.

Natalya 12/18/13
This is not the first time I’ve read a recipe for this dessert, but I can’t find these cookies. I would really like to replace it with something, but unfortunately the recipes don’t write alternatives, so I only tried this miracle once while visiting. It was delicious.

Alyona
Natalya, you can bake sponge cookies or make a Tiramisu cake with a regular sponge cake.

Ira 12/20/13
I recently discovered the first version of tiramisu - it turns out fast and delicious! The main thing is to take good cognac - then the taste will be more intense.

Alyona
Indeed, the main thing is to take good cognac and pour more of it, then everything else will no longer matter)))

Elena 01/01/14
I cooked with quail eggs - it was a pleasure, the whites whipped quickly, salmonellosis was not scary, the taste was extraordinary. Still, for tiramisu, only mascarpone!

Alyona
Elena, thank you for your feedback. Interesting idea with quail eggs)))

Zukhra 01/09/14
The cake already looks amazing in the picture! I must admit that I have never cooked Tiramisu and I want to improve. My friend now lives in Italy and often wrote to me that this dessert is very popular there. I don’t even know which of the two recipes is better, both are good and I’ll probably take this wonderful couple. I'll start with a simple recipe and repeat the classic one).

Mama Luda 02/12/14
Just last Sunday I tried Tiramisu, to my shame, for the first time. The neighbor treated me. She made it in a glass. But she didn’t share her secret. I want to make it in the form of a cake and invite my neighbor for tea. We are also not born with bastards.

Olga 02/15/14
There are several recipes for Tiramisu cake. But the main ingredients are the same. The classic recipe is described here. Of course, not everyone can find savoiardi cookies in the store; I usually replace them with lady fingers. It turns out delicious.

Nina 05/07/14
Alena, thank you for the Tiramisu cake recipe. Instead of cookies, I buy ready-made sponge cakes and whip the cream myself. It happens very quickly. Everyone loves it and it's much cheaper than buying a cake from the store.

Elena 05/07/14
Hi all)
Regarding eggs, they need to be washed thoroughly, salmonella, etc. live on the shell.
Mascarpone is made from cream and citric acid, which is why it tastes creamy. And everything that deviates from the classic review is not tiramisu, but a similar dessert, but still very tasty)

Alyona
The fact that eggs should be washed thoroughly in order to avoid possible troubles is correctly noted))) It is precisely because of the use of fresh eggs in the classic recipe that many prefer to move away from the classics and prepare a safer cream from whipped cream. Yes, big gourmets will be able to tell the difference, but for ordinary people it is more important that it is tasty, fast, inexpensive and safe. That's why I presented two versions of Tiramisu cake, as they say, for every taste and income))).

Olga 08/23/14
Tell me, can you use some other cookie for tiramisu cake, otherwise where can I get Italian savoiardi?

Alyona
Olga, if you don’t have the desire or ability to bake sponge cakes yourself, then you can use any store-bought sponge cookies. It is only important that it is without any specific flavoring additives, otherwise the original taste of tiramisu will be spoiled.

Ksyu 10.23.14
My grandma and I love to cook all sorts of delicious things!!! We'll probably be making tiramisu this weekend! It’s probably very tasty, but where can I get 35% fat cream???

Alyona
Ksyu, the supermarket should have whipping cream, look in the reviews, I mentioned some manufacturers.

Nina 01/08/15
I often eat tiramisu in cafes, but the homemade dessert is still a little different, I don’t even know why. It seems like the recipe is the same. Maybe it's all about the coffee or cognac? I give Jean-Jacques 5 stars, and Jacobs Monarch coffee.

Alyona
Nina, not only coffee and cognac influence the final result; a lot also depends on the taste and quality of cream, cocoa and cookies. Well, and the most important thing is the experience and skill of the master))) Therefore, Tiramisu, prepared by Italian masters from Italian products, is a little different)))

Natalya 01/13/15
I make mascarpone cheese myself: 1l. cream 20% and 0.2 l. 33 or 35% (I buy it in Auchan for about 150 rubles) I bring the cream to a temperature of about 80 degrees and add lemons about 1/3 tsp. I continue to heat it up. When the cream has curdled well, I put it on cheesecloth and leave it overnight. All! Homemade mascarpone is ready! I make delicious tiramisu to the delight of my family and friends. And further. It’s better to brew real coffee for soaking! Espresso! And as an alcoholic component I use Austrian STRO 60%.

Alyona
Natalya, thank you for sharing your mascarpone cheese recipe. I’ll definitely try it))) I completely agree about Expresso; in my family, instant coffee is not recognized at all

Svetlana 01/16/15
I would like to try baking a cake according to your recipe. I'll probably make my own Mascarpone cheese. Is lemongrass the juice of a lemon?

Alyona
Good afternoon, Svetlana! "Limonka" is citric acid in crystals. Can be replaced with lemon juice. 1/3 tsp. citric acid is approximately equal to 1 tbsp. lemon juice.

Svetlana 01/19/15
Good afternoon, Alena! Thanks for the tip. I will definitely bake a cake soon and share my impressions.

Katya 03/10/15
I often make this cake for my family. Only I leave it in the refrigerator for a day, the longer it infuses, the richer the taste becomes. If possible, you should either put it in a separate refrigerator or cover it with cling film.

Lyudmila, thank you very much for reporting the errors. If you see more, send it)))

Elena 12/15/15
Alena, I never cease to admire your talents! I have prepared many dishes using your recipes - they are simply amazing! My son and I traveled around Europe and visited Italian restaurants, where we had the opportunity to try this delicious dessert. But I didn’t get around to cooking it myself. It’s difficult to buy cheese in our small town, and you can’t buy cookies like that. I tried the second economy recipe. All the guests are simply delighted. The child even said that it tasted better than it was in the restaurant. Thank you very much.

Alyona
Elena, thank you very much for your kind words)))

The name of the Tiramisu dessert is Italian and comes from the words tira mi su, which literally means “lift me up.” Some sources claim that this refers to the high calorie content of the dish. But, the majority puts into these words a meaning associated with the lift in mood after which tiramisu causes.

Because of its aristocratic origins, tiramisu cannot be eaten on the go or on a park bench. This is considered bad manners.

History of tiramisu

Like pizza and spaghetti, tiramisu originates from Italy. This dessert was first prepared for the famous sweet tooth Cosimo III de' Medici at the end of the 17th century. This happened in the city of Siena, when an eminent nobleman came there on a visit. Local chefs took the initiative and served a new dish - Duke's soup. Despite the name, it was not a soup, but a sweet dessert. The Duke liked it so much that the recipe was taken to Florence and took root on the Duke’s menu for a long time.

At that time, Florence was the center of science and the arts. And the recipe of the Siena pastry chefs quickly spread among the bohemian public, becoming a source of inspiration for many local artists.

In a short period of time, the “Duke’s soup” made its way from Florence to Venice. It was there that the name “tiramisu” was finally assigned to the dessert. But this is just one version.

Another, more prosaic version claims that the tiramisu recipe was invented at the present time, and the centuries-old history of the dish was invented to attract attention to the dessert. One of the pastry chefs, Carmintonio Iannacone, claimed in a newspaper interview that it was he who came up with the recipe for tiramisu.

Many explain the appearance of the tiramisu recipe for very prosaic reasons. Allegedly, no one invented the recipe, but the Italians themselves came up with the creation of tiramisu by dipping stale cookies in coffee. Later, liqueur and cheese were added to the tiramisu recipe.

1. Cake “Coffee Tiramisu”

For the biscuit:

  • egg - 1-2 pcs.
  • instant coffee - 1/2 teaspoon
  • espresso coffee - 1/2 cup (40 ml)
  • cane sugar “Demirara” – 50 g
  • baking powder - 1/2 teaspoon
  • olive oil - to taste

For impregnation:

  • Amaretto liqueur
  • espresso coffee

For cream:

  • Mascarpone cheese (cream cheese) - 250 g
  • cream 33-38% - 100-150 g
  • powdered sugar - to taste

For decoration:

  • figs - 1-2 pcs.
  • cocoa for sprinkling
  • chocolate in the form of coffee beans
  • mint/melissa leaves

Prepare the biscuit: In a bowl, beat the egg along with sugar, add instant coffee (instant coffee is better; it behaves better when baking and gives off more flavor than, for example, freeze-dried or granulated), sifted flour, baking powder. Beat everything, add olive oil and hot espresso. Beat everything again with a mixer. Cover the springform pan with parchment, lay out the dough and bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes at 170-180 C, check the readiness of the sponge cake for springiness or with a torch. Cool the biscuit in the pan for 10-15 minutes, remove and let the biscuit finish on a wire rack.

The biscuit is ready, and then make it by analogy with the classic recipe. I baked a sponge cake in a 20 cm mold, then when it cooled down, I made 2 cake layers using the bottom of a mold 15 cm in diameter and cut more pieces into cubes (large).

Prepare the cream: whip the cream, but do not beat it. Add powdered sugar, Mascarpone cheese, mix it all into a single mass. Let cool.

Impregnation: combine coffee with liqueur, whatever you like best, I don’t give the proportions

Cake assembly: sponge cake - impregnation - cream - sponge cake impregnation - cream - biscuit cubes - impregnation - cream. Let it cool for at least 3-4 hours, preferably overnight.

Decor: Sprinkle cocoa on top, add mint/melissa leaves, pieces of figs and chocolate bars in the form of coffee beans.

2. Tiramisu cake

Ingredients:

  • chicken eggs - 6 pcs.
  • sugar - 220-230 g
  • flour - 150 g
  • vanilla sugar - 10 g
  • baking powder - 10 g
  • mascarpone – 500 g
  • milk cream (30%) – 350 ml + 100 ml (for ganache)
  • powdered sugar - 80 g
  • dark chocolate (for ganache) - 180 g
  • butter (for ganache) - 10-20 g
  • liqueur (amaretto) - to taste

Preparing the biscuit: Beat eggs with sugar until white, add vanilla sugar and sifted flour, well mixed with baking powder. Beat for another 5-7 minutes. There should be a lot of bubbles on the surface.

Pour the dough into the mold (pre-place a circle of parchment on the bottom of the mold to make it easier to remove the finished sponge cake).

Bake the biscuit at 170-180 degrees for about 25 minutes (depend on your oven). Check readiness with a wooden skewer. Remove the finished biscuit from the mold and cool on a wire rack. My mold was small (about 20 cm in diameter), I divided the dough in half and got 2 biscuits. Cut each of the biscuits in half.

For cream whip cream. Grind the cream cheese (I used mascarpone, but another would work) with powdered sugar (you can do this with a spoon). Add whipped cream to the cheese mixture and mix gently until smooth. I always do this by hand with a spoon and the cream turns out very tender and airy.

Brew fairly strong coffee and add a little liqueur. Sometimes I don’t add liqueur, it turns out delicious too! Soak each cake with coffee and place a layer of cream on top (the layer should not be thin!)

Assemble the cake: It’s easier to assemble the cake in a frame, it will be more even. It is better to put the cake in the refrigerator for several hours to soak. And it’s better at night - it will taste better! Then remove the frame and decorate the cake. You can coat the top with buttercream and sprinkle with cocoa or decorate with grated chocolate. I frosted the sides of the cake with chocolate ganache and the top with buttercream.

To prepare the ganache you need to break the chocolate into pieces, heat the cream to a boil, but do not boil, and pour the cream over the chocolate. Stir well with a spoon or whisk until the chocolate is completely dissolved. Add a piece of butter and mix again. Leave the ganache to cool and put it in the refrigerator for a while until it becomes thicker.

Then take out the chocolate and beat with a mixer until you get a mousse-like mass. If the resulting mass is well cooled, you can make delicious homemade chocolates from it.

Cover the sides of the cake with chocolate ganache and decorate the top with buttercream using a pastry syringe. Sprinkle the cake with cocoa before serving. The cake turns out very tender and rich.

Pour the dough into the mold and bake for 20 minutes at 175 C. Remove and leave for 15 minutes, then remove the cake from the mold and let it cool completely.

To prepare the cream, peel the oranges to remove the membranes. Using a knife to cut the slices between the films, cut out the flesh of two oranges and cut into pieces. Squeeze out the films and collect the juice.

Soak the gelatin in cold water. Mix cottage cheese, mascarpone, orange juice, 100g sugar and spices. Beat with a mixer for 3 minutes. Squeeze out the gelatin, dissolve over low heat and mix with 2 tablespoons of cream. Then mix in the rest of the cream. Add orange slices. Close the sides of the mold around the finished cake and, filling it with orange cream, put it in the refrigerator for 3 hours.

  • mint - 2 sprigs

Making coffee syrup. Pour orange juice and 300 g of water into a saucepan, add coffee. Boil and add about 3 tbsp. l. powdered sugar (reserve 2 tbsp). Pour the resulting syrup into a shallow bowl.

Preparing the cream. Beat the yolk with a mixer (or a whisk or fork), add 2 (or to taste) tablespoons of powdered sugar, then Mascarpone cheese. Lightly whisk or stir everything together.

Dip savoiardi (three pieces per serving) in coffee syrup. Place vertically in a glass. Fill the glass with cream by squeezing it out of a pastry bag and layering it with berries.

10. Tiramisu Madalena

Ingredients:

  • mascarpone - 250 g
  • heavy cream (33%) - 250 ml
  • eggs - 4 pcs.
  • savoiardi cookies
  • sugar - 4 tbsp.
  • espresso coffee - 1 cup
  • Marsala - 2 tsp.
  • cocoa or grated chocolate

Preparation: separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the yolks with sugar and a teaspoon of marsala until white. All operations are in the mixer, this is understandable.

Then add the mascarpone, mix well until the lumps disappear.
Stir the cream into the resulting mixture of eggs and mascarpone, mix well with a spatula (moving from bottom to top, carefully so that the cream turns out airy).

Dip the savoiardi in coffee with the remains of marsala. Do not keep them in coffee for a long time - they will creep, and brew it in advance, let it cool. It is better, of course, to use strong espresso.

And we begin to put it in molds. You can prepare tiramisu in portions, in beautiful cups or glasses. A layer of cream, savoiardi, another layer of cream, two or three times, no more. Sprinkle cocoa or grated chocolate on top. Or take a large mold and grease the bottom with cream. Repeat layers - again no more than three. (I always make two).

Carefully coat each layer, and at the end level it with a spatula or dough scraper, it is much more convenient for them. And again sprinkle with cocoa. Place in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours, or preferably overnight, to let it harden well. Carefully remove with a spatula. If you know the exact number of guests, it is, of course, more convenient to cook it in portions.

Bon appetit!
