How to Make Tiramisu Cake
-
Prepare the coffee
First, dissolve 1 tablespoon of coffee powder with 20g of sugar and 200ml of hot water, then let it cool.
-
Beat the eggs
Next, put 2 egg yolks, 60g of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar into a new bowl. Then, place this bowl over a pot of warm water and use a hand mixer to beat the mixture until it turns light yellow.
The purpose of warming the eggs: Warming the eggs will help the sugar dissolve, and the eggs whip faster and more stably. However, you should only warm the eggs to about 40 – 50 degrees Celsius; if it gets hotter, the eggs will cook and not whip well.
-
Whip the cream
Put 250ml of whipping cream into a new bowl, use a mixer to beat the mixture at medium speed until the cream is soft, forms distinct waves, and when you lift the whisk, it forms a stiff peak but bends over, that’s perfect.
Tip for whipping the cream quickly: Before beating, you can place the whipping cream or the whisk in the refrigerator for 15 minutes, or you can place the bowl of cream in a basin of ice water before whipping the cream.

Making tiramisu cream
Next, add 300g of Mascarpone cheese to the whipped cream bowl, then continue mixing the mixture at low speed with a mixer.

Pouring into the mold

Note: Do not dip the biscuits for too long as it will make them too soft.Then, spread a layer of tiramisu cream sauce evenly on top. Repeat these 2 layers until the box is full and finish with a layer of cream sauce.
Finally, cover the cake box tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator refrigerator for 4 – 6 hours or overnight.
