Ingredients
- 250 g mascarpone cheese
- 2 eggs
- 50 g sugar
- 1 tbsp sugar + 1 drop vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp Baileys
- 2 shots of espresso coffee
- 4 mini pandoro
- cocoa powder
Instructions
- Prepare the mascarpone cream - Separate the egg whites from the yolks. In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with half of the sugar. Add an additional tablespoon of sugar and a drop of vanilla extract, mixing until the mixture is pale and frothy.
- Gradually add the mascarpone cheese, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the Baileys. Set the thick cream aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula until smooth and well incorporated.
- Assemble the tiramisu trees - Slice each mini pandoro into 4 equal layers. Take the largest pandoro slice and brush it with espresso. Spread a layer of the mascarpone cream on top, then dust with cocoa powder.
- Repeat the process 3 times with each pandoro layer, stacking them to create a layered effect.
- On the top layer, add a final dollop of mascarpone cream and a light dusting of cocoa powder for decoration.
