Ingredients

Mascarpone Cream

  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • 2 cups mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream cold
  • cup pistachio spread

Coffee Mixture

  • 1 cup coffee ¾ -1 cup, you can also use espresso - strong brewed and cooled
  • 2 tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream

Assembly

  • 32 ladyfinger cookies 30-32 cookies
  • ½ cup pistachios chopped

Instructions

  • Mix the mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Beat the heavy cream to soft peaks.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.
  • Add the pistachio spread and combine.
  • Combine the brewed coffee, baileys, and sugar in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring they are moistened but not soggy. Arrange them in a single layer at the bottom of an 8x11-inch or similar-sized serving dish.
  • Spread half of the mascarpone cream evenly over the ladyfingers.
  • Repeat with another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers and the remaining mascarpone cream. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Spread chopped pistachios on top evenly.
  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

Warm the pistachio spread slightly if it’s too stiff to blend smoothly into the cream.
Use cooled coffee or espresso to prevent the ladyfingers from becoming too soft too quickly.
Let the tiramisu sit overnight for the best flavor and texture. The extra time helps the flavors meld beautifully.
