Coffee Tres Leches Tiramisu Recipes

COFFEE TRES LECHES TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Beat the eggs with the sugar at high speed until you reach ribbon stage. This is when you use the whisk to draw with the batter on top of itself. The drawing should stay a couple of seconds on top of the batter before incorporating back into it.
• Add the evaporated milk and vanilla and incorporate them using folding motions with a spatula.
• Mix the flour, coffee, salt and baking powder and add the mix onto the eggs through a sieve/colander. Use folding motions with a spatula to incorporate them. Be careful to get the flour that sinks to the bottom of the bowl. It tends to hide there and then you find out it's there when you pour the batter into the pan.
• Pour the batter onto a 20x20cm / 8x8in pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C/350°F for 20-25min or until you can insert a knife or skewer and it comes out clean.
• Before removing the pan from the oven, mix the three milks in a bowl.
• AS SOON as the sponge cake comes out of the oven, pour the mixture on top and let it absorb everything on its own. Let it cool down completely (this is important) before making the tiramisu top.
• Prepare a bain-marie by adding a bit of water to a small pot/saucepan and placing a bowl on top. Make sure that the water isn't touching the base of the bowl. Place the pot over medium heat and let it come to a simmer.
• While the water heats up, remove the bowl from on top of it and add the egg yolks and sugar.
• Place the bowl onto the pot again and reduce the temperature to low while whisking constantly with a metal whisk. Keep whisking until it becomes pale and thickens to ribbon stage. It's similar to what we do for a hollandaise sauce. Be careful that the temperature isn't too high so as to scramble the egg yolks. If you feel that it's heating up too much, remove the bowl from the heat and whisk very quickly to cool it down. If your mix still has sugar granules when you're done, don't worry, they will dissolve when refrigerated.
• Transfer the mix to another bowl to cool it down quicker. Wair for it to cool down to room temperature completely (it's important), it should take about 10 minutes.
• Whip the cream and mascarpone cheese at low speed to get them incorporated. When this happens, increase the speed to medium and beat them until it thickens. Be careful not to curdle it, don't take your eyes off of it.
• Add about ¼ of the mascarpone to the yolks and fold them together with a spatula. Add this new mix back to the mascarpone and mix everything using folding motions with a spatula.
• Pour the mix onto the tres leches base.
• Dust the top with cacao powder and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or ideally 24 hours.
• Cut the dessert in 6 and serve.

TRES LECHES TIRAMISU

Steps:

• For the spicy chocolate tres leches: In a small saucepan, whisk together the half-and-half, unsweetened cocoa powder, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the coffee liqueur. Cool before using.
• For the whipped cream: Pour the cream into a medium bowl. Using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream until soft peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the powdered sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and mascarpone. Mix until well combined.
• Dip the ladyfingers in the chocolate tres leches. Place 2 to 3 ladyfingers in the bottom of each trifle dish. Top with 1 tablespoon of the chocolate tres leches. Top with 2 tablespoons of the whipped cream mixture, and then a few pieces of mango and raspberries. Repeat the layers and garnish the top of each trifle with fruit pieces. Chill until ready to serve.
