How to make tiramisu
- Sift the icing sugar into the mascarpone. If using a vanilla pod, split it open and scrape out the seeds. Add the vanilla seeds (or vanilla extract) and Marsala to the mascarpone and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the cream until you reach the soft peak stage.
- Mix the cream and mascarpone together and refrigerate if possible.
- Break the sponge fingers in two and very briefly dip them in the cold coffee. Divide them into the bottom of the serving glasses and spoon over the mascarpone mixture.
- Grate a little chocolate on top before serving.
