Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)
- 24 ladyfinger cookies
- Cocoa powder, for dusting
Directions:
- Whip the Heavy Cream: In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, creating a light and fluffy texture. Set aside for later use.
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Mixture: In another bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy, infusing it with irresistible sweetness.
- Incorporate Mascarpone Cheese: Add the softened mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture, beating until well combined and creating a velvety-smooth consistency.
- Combine with Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until smooth and creamy, ensuring each spoonful is a luxurious delight.
- Soak the Ladyfinger Cookies: In a shallow dish, combine the brewed coffee and coffee liqueur, if using. Quickly dip each ladyfinger cookie into the coffee mixture, allowing them to soak up the flavors without becoming soggy.
- Layer the Tiramisu: Arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a serving dish, creating a sturdy foundation for our decadent dessert.
- Spread Peanut Butter Cream: Spread half of the peanut butter cream mixture over the layer of ladyfingers, ensuring even distribution and creating a luscious filling.
- Repeat the Layers: Repeat the layering process with another layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining peanut butter cream mixture, building a tower of irresistible flavors.
- Refrigerate: Cover the tiramisu and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, or overnight, allowing the flavors to meld together and intensify, creating a symphony of taste sensations.
- Dust with Cocoa Powder: Before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with cocoa powder, adding a touch of elegance and enhancing the visual appeal of our decadent dessert.
