Tiramisu (Cooked egg version)


Tiramisu is a coffee-flavoured italian dessert.  It is relatively easy to make without baking.  Most recipes call for raw yolks and whites.  It is safer to use pasteurized eggs.  In this recipe, I used the cooked yolks method and without using raw egg whites.  

Makes 9 inch square cake tin

Ingredients:

6               egg yolks
120g        sugar
230g        expresso, I used      
                 nespresso coffee, room 
                 temperature
420g        whipping cream, 35% fat
280g        mascarpone cheese
400g        lady fingers (abt 30 pcs)
20-100g  coffee flavored liqueur
                 Cocoa powder for dusting

1.  Add yolks & sugar into mixing bowl.
     4mins / 70c / speed 4

Let it cool, pour out onto a bowl and fridge for 30mins.

2.  Wash and dry the mixing bowl.  Attach the butterfly whisk.  Add in whipping cream.
     3mins / speed 3

Watch the texture of cream.  If the cream has reach the stage like the photo below, stop whipping.  Different whipping cream brand has different timing in whipping. (Note: if using Payson Breton brand, it takes abt 1min to stiff.  Else other brands like president takes 3mins)

If it is still watery, continue another 1min.  If it is going to stiff, do another 30secs. 

 Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
 3.  Add mascarpone cheese and the cold yolk mixture to the mixing bowl.
        50 sec / speed 3.5
4.  Fold 1/2 of the mascarpone cheese mixture to whipping cream.
5. Fold in the remaining mascarpone cheese mixture to the whipping cream. Set aside.
6.  Add the liqueur into the cooled espresso.  Pour the espresso on a flat plate/bowl so that it will not dip totally into the espresso.

7.  Dip the lady fingers in the espresso.
( ** note: do not soak the ladyfingers with espresso.  Just dip 1sec, turn to the other side, 1 sec).

7.  Place on the baking tin.  I have used a 7inch square plastic container. Spread the mascarpone batter on top of the soak lady fingers.
7. Repeat step 6 & 7 to put the 2nd layer.
8.  Sprinkle the cocoa powder on top of the cream & let it set in the fridge for at least 4 to 6 hrs.  Best results will be overnight. 

Note: As this is a cooked eggs version, it can keep in fridge for 5days.






I'm a busy working mum. Despite of the busy work, I hope to provide my family with home-cooked food whenever possible. I came across thermomix and it can fulfill my wish and also bring alot of cooking joy. I like to do research and development on baking and cooking. I am still trying to explore what it can do. If you are a thermomix owner, I hope this information will help you and we can learn together. If you do not own one and wanted to know more about it, I am more delighted to share with you.
