Prep Time: 25 mins
Cook Time: -
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Italian
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
- 1 package ladyfingers
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the brewed coffee and 2 tablespoons of pumpkin puree. Whisk until thoroughly blended and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together mascarpone cheese, remaining pumpkin puree, sugar, and pumpkin spice. Beat until smooth and well-incorporated, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee-pumpkin mixture, ensuring they are lightly soaked but not saturated. Arrange the first layer of ladyfingers in the bottom of an 8x8 inch serving dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone-pumpkin mixture evenly over the first layer of ladyfingers, creating a smooth surface.
- Repeat the layering process with another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.
- Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and dessert to set.
- Before serving, dust the top generously with cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve for an elegant finish.
- Slice into 8 equal portions and serve chilled. Garnish with a sprinkle of additional pumpkin spice if desired.
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: For the best flavor, use freshly brewed coffee and high-quality mascarpone cheese. The richness of the mascarpone is key to achieving that creamy texture.
- Don't Soak the Ladyfingers Too Long: When dipping the ladyfingers in the coffee-pumpkin mixture, a quick dip is all you need. Over-soaking can lead to a soggy tiramisu, so be sure to keep it light!
- Chill Overnight: Although you can serve it after 4 hours, letting the tiramisu chill overnight allows the flavors to meld beautifully, resulting in a more delicious dessert.
- Dust with Cocoa Powder Just Before Serving: For a beautiful presentation, dust the top with cocoa powder right before serving. This keeps the powder from becoming soggy and maintains that elegant finish.
- Add a Personal Touch: Feel free to experiment with additional spices or garnishes, such as a sprinkle of nutmeg or even some whipped cream on top for an extra indulgent touch!
