Tiramisu Recipe - Individual Portions


Tiramisu Recipe - Individual Portions

Mediterranean Dessert - Quick and Easy Italian

Here's a really simple way to make a tiramisu recipe, the famous and absolutely delicious Italian dessert.  You can put all the ingredients together in one big bowl, but when you make a large 6 portion tiramisu…..it gets spoilt during the serving, and looks a bit of a mess when spooned on to a dessert plate. This recipe has been adapted to make individual ones…..it looks so pretty made up in small glass serving dishes in its different layers, so much easier for the host to serve as well.

For 6 individual portions you will need:

Ingredients
  • 3 Medium eggs
  • 4 Tablespoons caster sugar
  • 250g (8½ oz) Mascarpone cheese
  • 250ml (9fl oz) Cold strong black coffee
  • 5 Tablespoons of Brandy or Rum
  • 200g (7oz) Sponge fingers
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder or grated chocolate, to decorate
Individual Tiramisu Ready to Eat

And this is what you do:


Method

  1. Separate the eggs in a bowl. Beat the yolks and sugar, until thick and creamy. Beat the whites separately until stiff.
  2. Add the Mascarpone to the yolk mixture, a spoonful at a time. Stir until smooth. 
  3. Fold in the egg whites.
  4. Mix the coffee with the Brandy or Rum, in a shallow bowl. 
  5. Dip half the sponge fingers in the liquid, soaking both sides, and use them to line each individual glass dish.
  6. Divide half the Mascarpone mixture between each dish, and smooth over.
  7. Dip the remaining fingers in the liquid and arrange on top of the Marscapone mix in each dish.
  8. Divide the remaining half of Mascarpone between each dish and smooth the surface.  
  9. Chill for about 2 hours.
  10. Sprinkle each one generously with cocoa powder (using a small sieve), or grated chocolate, before serving.
