TIRAMISU CUPS RECIPE

Steps:

• Brew the espresso or a very strong coffee. If making coffee use about the double amount of coffee powder you would normally use. Pour into a bowl and let cool slightly until needed. Add 2 tablespoons of the Amaretto to the coffee.
• Beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the vanilla extract and gradually start adding the sugar while continuing to beat until the heavy cream is stiff.
• In another bowl, gently stir the mascarpone and the remaining 10 tablespoons Amaretto until smooth. Don't overmix or the mascarpone will become runny.
• Gently fold the whipped heavy cream into the mascarpone mixture.
• Fill the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a large nozzle (alternatively use a spoon).
• Pipe some of the mascarpone cream into the jars.
• Break each ladyfinger into three pieces. Dip them for just a moment into the coffee and place them into the jars.
• Cover with more mascarpone.
• Add another broken and soaked ladyfinger on top and cover with more mascarpone.
• Cover the jars with their lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
• Sieve the unsweetened cocoa powder on top before serving.

MINI TIRAMISU CUPS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer at medium speed, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add mascarpone cheese, confectioners' sugar, and espresso powder. With a rubber spatula, fold in the whipped topping. Spoon or pipe the filling into the chocolate cups. Dust with cinnamon and top with chocolate piece. Cook's Notes: For a mature crowd, add a tablespoon or two of rum or sweet Marsala wine to the filling. Although I did not add crisp Italian ladyfingers to the cups, adding a piece on the bottom of the cup or as a decoration can add to a cup's Tiramisu-ness. Unsure about how long the cups would remain at room temperature, and since they would be out of my sight, I chose to use non-dairy whipped topping, thawed. Incorporating about 2 cups of heavy whipping cream that had been whisked to stiff peaks would be my preferred addition. Other Chocolate Cup Options include Astor, Dolba, or, or you can make them, like I did here - years ago, or as others have here and here.

MINI TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Combine the cream, sugar and vanilla in a bowl and beat until stiff peaks form. Beat in the mascarpone.
• Combine the espresso and rum in a shallow bowl.
• Break the ladyfingers into thirds to make 18 pieces. To build the first tiramisu, quickly dip 2 pieces in the coffee mixture, then place in the bottom of a small glass.
• Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the mascarpone mixture on top. With a rasp or the smallest holes on a box grater, grate a fine layer of the chocolate over the mascarpone mixture. Repeat 2 more times to fill the glass, then repeat the whole process for the second tiramisu.
• Using a fine sieve, dust the tops with cocoa powder. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
