Ingredients:

1 cup

Water

2 tbsps

Espresso Powder

1 cup

Heavy Cream

Directions:

1

Whisk the coffee liqueur, water, espresso powder, and 2 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar in a glass measuring cup until smooth

2

Pour about 1/3 cup of the mixture over the ladyfingers in a shallow bowl, then toss and set aside

3

Gently beat with a handheld mixer the remaining espresso mixture and the remaining 4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar into the mascarpone until smooth

4

Take care not to overbeat it or the mascarpone will be grainy

5

Using the same beaters (no need to clean them), beat the whipped cream to soft peaks and fold it into the mascarpone mixture

6

To assemble the tiramisu: Crumble half the soaked ladyfingers into four 8-ounce parfait or wine glasses

7

Spoon 1/4 cup of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers and press and spread gently with the back of the spoon to fill the spaces between the ladyfinger pieces

8

Repeat with remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture
