Techniques or Tips
- When dipping the ladyfingers into the coffee mixture, be sure to do so quickly to avoid them becoming overly soggy. Aim for a brief dip to lightly moisten the biscuits.
- Use a shallow dish for dipping the ladyfingers to ensure even soaking and minimal waste of the coffee mixture.
- For best results, allow the Tiramisu to chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly.
Variation
For a non-alcoholic version of this Tiramisu, simply omit the coffee liqueur from the recipe. You can also experiment with different flavors by adding a splash of rum or amaretto liqueur to the coffee mixture for a unique twist.
