TIRAMISU- COOKING LIGHT

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in mixer or food processor. Mix until smooth; set aside.
• Mix together hot water and espresso granules in a small bowl. Split ladyfingers in half, lenthwise. Quickly dip 20 ladyfinger halves, cut side down, into espresso. Place dipped side down in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Spread 2 cups of cheese mixture over ladyfinger halves. Repeat procedure with remaining ladyfingers, espresso, and cheese.
• Place one wooden pick in each corner and one in the center of tiramisu (to prevent plastic wrap from sticking to cheese mixture) and cover with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Remove wood picks and sprinkle with cocoa.

LIGHT TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Make the coffee and leave it to cool down slightly in a shallow dish (I use a large tupperware). You can add baileys to the mix if you want.
• Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until you have a pale and well combined mix. Add the ricotta and the yogurt after draining them of any excess water and mix well
• Whisk the egg whites until firm and add them to the rest of the mix delicately, so not to lose the fluffyness
• Dip half of the the savoiardi in the shallow dish with the coffee, very briefly, on both sides. Do only one biscuit at the time, so to avoid leaving them in the coffee for too long or they'll go soggy. Transfer them to a rectangular baking dish. (I use a 28x20cm ceramic dish). Spoon over a little more than half of the cheese and yogurt mix
• Dip the remaining half of the biscuits in the coffee and layer on top of the mix (dispose the biscuits perpendicular to the layer underneath, so it won't fall apart when you cut it). Spoon over the rest of the mix.
• Cover with foil and leave in the fridge to firm up for a couple of hours. Dust with cocoa powers through a small sieve before serving

• This dish can be made 1 or even 2 days in advance as the flavours intensify the longer you leave them. You can also vary the quantities of the ricotta and yogurt mix, using more of one and less of the other as long as you end up with 600gr in total.

EMILY'S FAMOUS TIRAMISU

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whip egg yolks and 1/4 cup of sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites (with clean beaters) to soft peaks. Gradually sprinkle in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar while whipping to medium stiff peaks. Fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites. Gently fold in the flour and 1 teaspoon vanilla. The batter should be thick and pale yellow.
• Trace two 9 inch circles onto the parchment paper using a cake pan as a guide. Spread or pipe batter to completely fill inside the lines of the circles. Batter should be about 1/2 inch tall.
• Load the remaining batter into a pastry bag fitted with a half inch tip or hole. Draw parallel lines onto another piece of parchment that are 3 inches apart. Pipe the batter back and forth just between the lines in a compressed S motion, until you run out of batter. This is the part that wraps around the outside of the cake. (It helps to have it in one piece, but you can pipe individual fingers using the guidelines drawn on the paper, if you prefer.) There may be extra.
• Bake in preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes, until firm but not browned. Remove from the oven and dust generously with confectioners' sugar. Set aside to cool.
• To make the syrup, stir together 1 cup sugar, boiling water, coffee and 1/4 cup rum until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
• To make the filling, combine mascarpone, 2 cups confectioners' sugar, dark rum and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a large bowl. Whisk together until completely smooth, scraping the bottom of the bowl to remove any lumps. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream. Whip with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Stop whipping when the mixture shows the first sign of graininess.
• To assemble, line the sides of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment or waxed paper. Place one of the ladyfinger rounds in the bottom of the pan. Brush generously, but do not soak completely, with syrup. Place the 3-inch high ladyfinger strips around the inside edge of the pan, so that the sides are completely covered. Brush generously with syrup.
• Spread half of the filling mixture over the first ladyfinger round in the pan. Place the remaining ladyfinger round on top of the filling. Soak the second ladyfinger round with syrup until it cannot take any more. Spread the remaining filling over that and smooth the top. Sprinkle with grated chocolate. Refrigerate at least 4 hours.
• To serve, remove the sides of the pan and carefully remove the parchment or waxed paper from the outside of the cake. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

CLASSIC TIRAMISù

Steps:

• Using an electric mixer in a medium bowl, whip together egg yolks and 1/4 cup/50 grams sugar until very pale yellow and about tripled in volume. A slight ribbon should fall from the beaters (or whisk attachment) when lifted from the bowl. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, wiping out the medium bowl used to whip the yolks and set aside.
• In the medium bowl, whip cream and remaining 1/4 cup/50 grams sugar until it creates soft-medium peaks. Add mascarpone and continue to whip until it creates a soft, spreadable mixture with medium peaks. Gently fold the mascarpone mixture into the sweetened egg yolks until combined.
• Combine espresso and rum in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• Using a sifter, dust the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish (an 8x8-inch dish, or a 9-inch round cake pan would also work here) with 1 tablespoon cocoa powder.
• Working one at a time, quickly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture -- they are quite porous and will fall apart if left in the liquid too long -- and place them rounded side up at the bottom of the baking dish. Repeat, using half the ladyfingers, until you've got an even layer, breaking the ladyfingers in half as needed to fill in any obvious gaps (a little space in between is O.K.). Spread half the mascarpone mixture onto the ladyfingers in one even layer. Repeat with remaining espresso-dipped ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture.
• Dust top layer with remaining tablespoon of cocoa powder. Top with shaved or finely grated chocolate, if desired.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (if you can wait 24 hours, all the better) before slicing or scooping to serve.
