Directions
Now that we have our ingredients ready, let’s dive into the step-by-step directions to create the ultimate Buche Tiramisu:
Prepare the Tiramisu Filling
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar. Cook over low heat while constantly stirring until the mixture thickens and turns pale yellow. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- In a separate bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg yolk and sugar mixture into the mascarpone cheese, then fold in the whipped cream. Be gentle to maintain that airy texture.
- Combine the brewed coffee with the cooled egg yolk mixture to create a coffee-infused blend. This will serve as the soaking liquid for the ladyfingers.
Assemble the Buche Tiramisu
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture. Be sure not to soak them for too long; a quick dip is enough to infuse the flavor.
- Line the bottom and sides of your rectangular dish or buche mold with the coffee-soaked ladyfingers, creating a base and walls for your Buche Tiramisu.
- Pour half of the Tiramisu filling over the ladyfingers layer.
- Add another layer of coffee-soaked ladyfingers and top them with the remaining Tiramisu filling.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best. This allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Garnish and Serve
- Before serving, dust the Buche Tiramisu with cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate shavings and fresh berries if desired.
- Slice, serve, and savor the creamy, coffee-infused delight.
- I love with this way, just a nice normal shape, I didn’t like it with the rounded shape
