Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup pistachio paste
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee or espresso, cooled
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 24 ladyfingers (savoiardi)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp crushed pistachios, for garnish

Instructions

  • Prep the Coffee Mixture: In a shallow bowl, mix the cooled brewed coffee with granulated sugar until dissolved. Set aside.
  • Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then whip until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Mix the Pistachio Cream: In another bowl, mix the mascarpone cheese and pistachio paste until smooth. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined and creamy.
  • Assemble the Tiramisu: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, ensuring both sides are lightly coated but not soggy. Arrange a layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers at the bottom of an 8x8-inch dish or individual serving glasses.
  • Add the Cream Layer: Spread half of the pistachio cream mixture over the ladyfingers. Dust with 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder. Repeat with another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers and the remaining pistachio cream.
  • Chill and Garnish: Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Before serving, dust the top with the remaining cocoa powder and sprinkle with crushed pistachios.

Notes

Pro Tips: Chill the tiramisu for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. Use high-quality pistachio paste for the best flavor. Dust with extra cocoa powder or crushed pistachios before serving for an elegant finish. For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso instead of regular coffee.Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This dessert tastes even better the next day as the flavors deepen.Variations: Swap the pistachio paste for almond or hazelnut paste for a different nutty twist. Add a layer of chocolate ganache between the ladyfingers and cream for extra richness. For a boozy version, add 1-2 tablespoons of amaretto or coffee liqueur to the coffee mixture.
