Why This 10-Minute Tiramisu Is a Game-Changer

  • No eggs or flour – Perfect for those with dietary restrictions or safety concerns.
  • No baking required – Ideal for warm weather or busy kitchens.
  • Quick to make – 10 minutes from start to fridge.
  • Elegant and delicious – Creamy, coffee-soaked, and utterly irresistible.

Ingredients

(Serves 4–6 people)

  • 200g (about 7 oz) ladyfinger biscuits (savoiardi)
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled) or espresso
  • 250g (about 1 cup) mascarpone cheese
  • 200ml (about ¾ cup) heavy whipping cream
  • 3–4 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
  • Optional: dark chocolate shavings or grated chocolate for topping

Instructions

1. Whip the Cream

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and sugar together until soft peaks form.

2. Add Mascarpone and Vanilla

Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Be careful not to overmix—just combine until it’s light and fluffy.

3. Soak the Ladyfingers

Dip each ladyfinger briefly into the cooled coffee (about 1–2 seconds per side). Don’t oversoak—they should be moist but not mushy.

4. Layer the Dessert

In a glass dish, trifle bowl, or individual cups:

  • Add a layer of soaked ladyfingers.
  • Spoon a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
  • Repeat the layers, ending with a thick layer of cream.

5. Chill (Optional)

You can serve immediately, but for the best flavor and texture, refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

6. Dust and Serve

Before serving, dust the top generously with cocoa powder and add chocolate shavings if desired.


Tips for the Perfect No-Bake Tiramisu

  • Make it decaf: If serving to kids or avoiding caffeine, use decaf coffee.
  • Light version: Substitute some of the mascarpone with Greek yogurt or light cream cheese.
  • Flavor boost: Add a splash of coffee liqueur or rum (for adults only) to the coffee mixture.
  • Single-serve option: Build individual tiramisus in small glasses or jars for an elegant presentation.

Storage

This tiramisu keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days. In fact, it gets even better as it sits! Just cover tightly with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container.
