Tiramisu is an Italian dessert, it means "pick me up" because there's traditionally quite a bit of coffee in it!

I do think it's cheap to make as you don't need to buy many ingredients. The reason this didn't get 5 stars is because I think the recipe should say to beat the cream separately from the mascarpone first, and then to beat mascarpone and add whipped cream to it. As the mascarpone available to me is already thick, and adding the cream unbeaten makes the cream/mascarpone mixture too liquid-y and I accidentally overheat my mixture when trying to thicken it. And it turned into basically butter within a minute. So that's my tip for a slight change in the method of the recipe. As i was following the method step-by-step, I didn't beat my cream first and didn't realize that it was asking for you to whip it.Everything else recipe wise was fine and I didn't have any issues with anything else., approved=true, user_name=Grace, hs_createdate=1702249855672, rating_new__1_5_=4, id=11175587227}, {comment_text=Scrumptious, a keeper, approved=true, user_name=Therese, hs_createdate=1702249855535, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175356495}, {comment_text=Not, as the previous comment notes, the beloved Italian tiramisu but a delicious and easy to make twist on it which is good for those who don't want to risk the raw eggs of the authentic version., approved=true, user_name=Patricia Thompson, hs_createdate=1702249855458, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175575708}, {comment_text=Pretty easy and very tasty!, approved=true, user_name=Sara-Anne, hs_createdate=1702249854374, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175604499}, {comment_text=Devine!!

Method

Prepare a double boiler. You can do this by bringing a few centimetres of water to a simmer in a saucepan. Place a glass or stainless steel bowl over the top, so that it fits snugly without touching the water below.
Place egg yolks, Chelsea Caster Sugar and vanilla in the bowl. Whisk until thick, pale and creamy (3-4 minutes). Remove from heat.
Place the mascarpone and cream in a separate large bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip to soft peaks. Fold into the egg mixture.
Mix the coffee with the coffee liqueur. Dunk the sponge fingers quickly in the coffee mixture, making sure they are completely immersed. Don't leave them in for more than a second or two as they can turn soggy.
Layer one third of the sponge fingers in a serving dish (approximately 24cm x 16cm) and top with a third of the mascarpone cream. Repeat twice to form three layers.
Sift cocoa evenly over the top. Cover and chill for at least 3 hours before serving.
