Can this be made as a trifle?

I use a little spray bottle to dampen the ladyfingers with brandy or whatever liquor I am using; same with the espresso. Less soggy.

I have made it twice and gotten raves and reviews. I know not using Expresso is not going to be kosher for some people but Most people who do not like Tiramisu would sight the bitter taste of the coffee. I dip mine for a fraction af a second. Tip I learnt from another chef is to put enough coffee in a deep plate or shallow dish that would allow only half of the lady fingers to be covered (add more as it is depleted). I dip, flip then dip the other side and remove and put in the dish.

Soggy Tiramisu is not cool!!!

I like the methodology used to put the recipe together, truly written up by an engineer Smile.

I want to say thanks for this tiramisu recipe, I've been coming back to it for years. It's my go-to Christmas dessert, I love that I can make it ahead of time, freeze it, then take it with me on the day. By lunchtime it's generally defrosted perfectly, and I always get compliments about it. Cheers, T.

Are we not engineers? Is this site not "Cooking for Engineers"? So why "simplify" an already simple dessert? While America's Test Kitchen has it's problems, they do have a good step-by-step recipe which shows how to properly soak the ladyfingers. And best of all, their recipe doesn't omit the yolks!

If someone served me the pictured Tiramisu, I would appreciate the effort, but be very disappointed with the dessert.

Did you even try the recipe? I know it seems odd, but it really does taste good and has won several small time cooking / baking contests. If you really don't want to try this alternative recipe, then we do have a more traditional one that starts with making the zabaglione: Classic Tiramisu recipe

Hi, Lot of interesting posts. I am not sure if anyone if u still chking this site last post was in 2014.. I will ask my question anyways.... I am making individual cups of tiramisu for 50 people.. And i an not able to find Ladyfinger..
Can I bake my own Vanilla bean cake with angle food cake box mix?? Or will it be too soft for this after dipping in coffee..
Also i do like the Idea if not using raw eggs.. I will try mixing ricotta,mascarpone and heavy cream(whipped)..

This is my first time making tiramisu i hope it trurns out good 😕😕

Any suggestions??

there are 'substitute' recommendations of 'any sponge cake' - but personally that has never worked too well as a crisp cookie. vanilla wafers have a similar texture but not the shape, you could make your own:

as to the eggs, ask around for pasteurized eggs. these are quickly and precisely heated to a precise temp to kill salmonella.

An amazing recipe. Are there vegan alternatives to the ingredients?

do a search on "Vegan Tiramisu" - many many many recipes turn up.
I'd search for a trustworthy source and follow that rather than attempt to modify this one.
