Recipe:
Ingredients:
For the Cream Layer:
- 300 g cream cheese
- 85 g mascarpone cheese
- 75 g powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 300 g heavy cream
Other Ingredients:
- Biscoff biscuits (for layering)
- Chilled espresso (for dipping the biscuits)
- Lotus Biscoff spread (for drizzling between layers and on top)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cream Mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat the mixture until smooth and creamy. - Whip the Cream:
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, creating a light and fluffy filling. - Prepare the Coffee:
Brew the espresso and let it cool to room temperature. Pour the cooled espresso into a shallow dish for dipping the biscuits. - Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Take a Biscoff biscuit and briefly dip it into the chilled espresso, making sure it’s soaked but not soggy.
- Place the dipped biscuits in a single layer at the bottom of your serving dish (you can use a rectangular or square dish, or individual glasses for serving).
- Spread a layer of the cream mixture over the biscuits.
- Drizzle Lotus Biscoff spread over the cream layer (you can melt it slightly to make drizzling easier).
- Repeat the process, layering soaked biscuits, cream, and Biscoff spread, until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of cream on top.
- Chill:
Refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly. - Garnish and Serve:
Before serving, drizzle more melted Lotus Biscoff spread on top and sprinkle with crushed Biscoff biscuits for extra crunch. You can also dust with a little cocoa powder for a classic tiramisu touch.
Enjoy your creamy, decadent Lotus Tiramisu with every rich and indulgent bite!
