Tiramsu @ Epcot

[abbyndrewmom]

I got the best Tiramsu for a vendor outside the Italy Pavillion, it was so much better then what some of our local restaurants try to pass off as Tiramsu. Tiramsu is my favorite dessert yet I have never tried to make it at home. Does anyone have this recipe or could you give me some places to look.

Thanks

Tiramisu
Italy

Espresso Syrup:
10 oz. Espresso coffee
1 T. brandy
2 T. sugar

Mascarpone Cream:
1 C. Mascarpone cheese
4 eggs, separated
4 T. sugar
1/2 C. heavy cream
vanilla to taste

Lady Fingers:
6 T. sugar
3/4 C. all-purpose flour
3 eggs, separated
1 T. powdered sugar

For ladyfingers: Whip egg yolk and 1/2 of the sugar until pale in color. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until doubled in size, then add rest of sugar. Fold flour into egg yolk mixture until completely incorporated. Fold egg whites into yolk/flour mixture until completely incorporated. With a pastry bag filled and fitted with a round tip, pipe ladyfingers approximately 3" long and 1" wide onto baking sheet. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and bake in a 350 degree F oven until golden brown, approximately 10 minutes.

For Cream: Whip heavy cream until soft peaks form, set aside in refrigerator. Whip egg yolks and 1/2 of sugar until pale in color. Add mascarpone cheese to yolks and mix until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until doubled in size, then add rest of sugar until dissolved. Add vanilla to taste. Fold in egg whites until completely smooth.

For Syrup: Combine espresso, brandy and sugar until sugar is dissolved.

Assembly: Soak ladyfingers in the espresso syrup briefly. In an 8X8" square or round dish, place 1 layer of the ladyfingers. Spread 1/2 of the mascarpone cream on the lady fingers. Repeat both steps once more.
Note: Sprinkle top layer with cocoa powder.

CAUTION - Raw eggs are used in this recipe. Raw eggs can carry the risk of Salmonella food poisoning.

Yes Thank you so much.

I will probably try the 2nd recipe first as I do want to try and avoid the raw egg if possible. Hopefully it will come out close to the one I had at Italy, it was so good. It will be my first stop on the next trip. Mmmm Tiramsu for Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
