- 250g mascarpone
- 150g heavy cream (30-35% fat)
- 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- Speculoos cookie butter (melted)
- Speculoos cookies (optional for layering)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Mascarpone Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream, mascarpone, and vanilla extract together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and firm. You can also add 1-2 tablespoons of speculoos cream for extra flavor if desired.
- Once the mixture is well whipped, gently fold in the powdered sugar using a spatula (maryse) until fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Transfer the mascarpone cream into a piping bag for easy layering.
- In each serving glass, start with a layer of crumbled speculoos cookies (if using), followed by a layer of mascarpone cream, and then a drizzle of melted speculoos cookie butter.
- Repeat the layers until the glass is filled, finishing with a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
- Chill and Serve:
- Place the assembled tiramisu glasses in the fridge to chill until ready to serve. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cream to set.
- Serve chilled and enjoy this delightful, quick dessert.
Enjoy!
