Ingredients

⅓ cup mascarpone cheese (preferably at room temperature)

12 savoiardi biscuits (ladyfingers), about 3.5 oz / 100g

3 tbsp brewed espresso coffee (cooled)

3 tsp sifted powdered sugar

Cacao powder for dusting

Instructions

  • Brew the Espresso:
    Brew the coffee and let it cool completely.

  • Prepare the Biscuits:
    In a blender or food processor, blitz the savoiardi biscuits until they turn into a fine powder.

  • Make the Cream Mixture:
    In a bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese and powdered sugar. Pour in the cooled espresso and mix until smooth and creamy.

  • Combine the Biscuits:
    Add the crushed ladyfingers to the cream mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula until well combined. The mixture should be thick, like cookie dough.

  • Shape the Truffles:
    Scoop a teaspoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the truffles on a plate and continue until all the mixture has been rolled into balls (you should get about 10 truffles).

  • Chill the Truffles:
    Place the truffle balls in the fridge and allow them to set for at least 1 hour. For firmer truffles, leave them in the fridge a bit longer.

  • Coat in Cacao Powder:
    Once set, place cacao powder in a small bowl. Drop each truffle into the powder and gently roll to coat completely.

  • Serve and Enjoy:
    Serve the truffles chilled and enjoy the decadent flavors of tiramisu in a bite-sized form!

Notes

  • Dipping in Chocolate: For an extra indulgent treat, dip the truffles in melted dark or milk chocolate before coating them in cacao powder.

  • Flavored Truffles: Add a splash of coffee liqueur or flavored extract (like vanilla or hazelnut) to the cream mixture for an extra twist.

  • Vegan Option: Swap the mascarpone for dairy-free mascarpone and use coconut sugar for a vegan version.
