About my tiramisu recipe

This tiramisu recipe comes very close to a classic tiramisu, but without the raw eggs and without alcohol. Instead of the usual amaretto, I use bitter almond oil and the recipe is super simple: no baking, no tempering of raw eggs – just mix, layer and put in the fridge. The hardest part? Waiting patiently until the tiramisu is firm enough to finally enjoy!

Tiramisu recipe without egg and alcohol – the ingredients

Here’s an overview of the ingredients. As always, you’ll find the exact measurements at the bottom in the recipe card.

  • Whipped cream: It should be well chilled so that it is easy to whip.
  • Mascarpone: An Italian cream cheese that gives tiramisu its typical velvety texture.
  • Sugar: Can be adjusted to taste.
  • Vanilla extract: Gives the cream an aromatic note.
  • Espresso or strong coffee:The coffee should be cooled down before it is used.
  • Bitter almond oil: Replaces the traditional amaretto and adds an intense almond flavor.
  • Ladyfingers: They should only be lightly dipped in the coffee to retain texture.
  • Cocoa powder: The cocoa powder serves as the final layer. It is best sprinkled over the tiramisu just before serving.

Step-by-step instructions

  • Beat the whipped cream until medium firm.
  • Mix the mascarpone, sugar and vanilla until well combined. Add the whipped cream. Use a rubber spatula and lift the mixture a few times, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl. Then use the mixer again to blend the mixture until smooth.

  • Stir the coffee and bitter almond flavoring together. Lightly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture. Do not soak, otherwise the cookies will be soggy. Place a layer of cookies in a square baking dish (here: 20×20).
  • Spread half of the cream mixture over the cookies. Repeat another layer and place the tiramisu in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Dust with cocoa powder before serving.

Tips for the perfect tiramisu

  • Whip the cream properly: For a firm filling that is easy to cut, I like to whip the cream to firm peaks. But be careful – there is only a fine line between firm peaks and over-whipping. If you want to be on the safe side, only whip the cream until medium firm peaks form. If the cream does overbeat, you can simply add 1-2 tablespoons of cold cream and stir in carefully by hand until the mixture is smooth again.

  • Dip the ladyfingers only lightly: Only dip the ladyfingers briefly into the coffee mixture – a quick dip of 1 second on each side is enough. If they are soaked for too long, they could fall apart and the tiramisu will be too mushy.

Frequently asked questions

  • What are ladyfingers? Ladyfingers are dry, spongy cookies in the shape of a finger. The Italian Savoiardi cookies or the French Boudoir cookies are best suited for tiramisu.
  • Where can I buy ladyfingers? You can find them on the cookie shelf in your supermarket or online at Amazon.
  • Can I make tiramisu without mascarpone? Yes, you can replace the mascarpone with 170g of cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of sour cream and 3 tablespoons of whipped cream, stirred together until smooth. You can also make your own mascarpone for a fraction of the price of store-bought versions. Here is a recipe: Homemade Mascarpone from Pastry Affair.
  • Can I make tiramisu completely egg-free? Yes, you can do this by using egg-free ladyfingers. These are rarely found in shops, but you can bake them yourself. Here is a recipe from Gemma’s Bigger Bolder Baking.
  • How long in advance can you prepare tiramisu? You can prepare tiramisu 1-2 days in advance, as it will keep for up to 4 days in the fridge. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months.
