Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • ¾ cup brewed coffee
  • 1 tbsp amaretto (optional)
  • ⅓ cup condensed milk
  • 1 tbsp matcha powder
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 8 oz mascarpone cheese
  • 2 tbsp brewed coffee
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 40 lady fingers
  • 1 tbsp matcha powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine your brewed coffee with amaretto in a bowl. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the condensed milk and matcha together until a uniform green color. Sift the matcha powder into the condensed milk.

  3. 3

    Next make your mascarpone filling. Bring a few cups of water (2-3 cups) to a simmer in a small sauce pan.

  4. 4

    Add egg yolks and matcha condensed milk to a bowl. Put the bowl on top of the simmering water and mix until the egg mixture turns a lighter green color (3-5 minutes). Remove from the heat.

  5. 5

    Add the mascarpone cheese, brewed coffee, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix until well incorporated.

  6. 6

    Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks. Gently fold the cream into the mascarpone mixture from step 5. Set aside.

  7. 7

    Now it’s time to assemble your tiramisu. Lightly dip a lady finger in the brewed coffee and place it in a 9x9 baking dish. Repeat this process until the bottom is lined with lady fingers.

  8. 8

    Scoop half the mascarpone cream onto the lady fingers. Spread it out in an even layer on top of the lady fingers. Repeat this process with a second layer of lady fingers and then a second layer of mascarpone cheese.

  9. 9

    Sift matcha powder on top of the second layer of mascarpone cream.

  10. 10

    Cover the tiramisu and place it in the fridge. Let it set in the fridge for 6 hours or overnight. For the best flavor and texture, let it set in the fridge overnight.
