Preparation of Layered Tiramisu Cups with Thermomix

Step by Step Preparation of Tiramisu Cups with Thermomix

1. 1. Prepare the Mascarpone Filling
2. Add mascarpone cheese and sugar: Place the mascarpone cheese and sugar in the Thermomix glass. Mix at speed 3 for 10 seconds until well combined. Avoid overmixing so that the mascarpone maintains its texture.
3. Whip the heavy cream: Without washing the glass, place the butterfly and add the heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat at speed 3.5 until firm peaks form. Watch the process so as not to overbeat and prevent the cream from curdling.
4. Add the whipped cream to the mascarpone: Pour the whipped cream into the reserved mascarpone, mixing with circular movements for a fluffy and homogeneous texture. Reserve this mixture in a separate bowl.
5. 2. Prepare the Espresso Soaked Solete Biscuits
6. Heat the water and dissolve the coffee: In the Thermomix glass, heat 3/4 cup of water to 90°C for 2 minutes at speed 1.
7. Add espresso and sugar: Add the espresso powder and sugar, and mix for 10 seconds on speed 3 or until completely dissolved. Then, pour this mixture into a bowl and let it cool slightly.

Assembling the Tiramisu Cups in Layers

1. Step by Step Assembly
2. Dip ladyfingers in espresso: Place a ladyfinger cake in the prepared espresso mixture, soaking for a few seconds. Then, place the cake in the bottom of the trifle glass. If necessary, break the biscuits to cover the bottom of the glass well.
3. Add a layer of mascarpone filling: Using a pastry bag or spoon, pipe a generous layer of the mascarpone mixture over the biscuits.
4. Repeat the process: Add another layer of soaked sponge cakes and a second layer of mascarpone cream. This process can be repeated until the glasses are complete or the desired number of layers is reached.

Prepare the Kahlúa Whipped Cream to Decorate

1. Whip the cream with Kahlúa and sugar: With the glass clean and cold, place the butterfly and add the thick whipped cream, powdered sugar and Kahlúa. Beat at speed 3.5 until firm peaks form.
2. Pipe the whipped cream over the trifles: Use a pastry bag to add a swirl of Kahlúa cream to the top of each glass.
3. Sprinkle cocoa powder: To finish, sprinkle some cocoa powder over the whipped cream.

Refrigeration and Presentation

1. It is advisable to refrigerate the tiramisu cups in layers for at least an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to integrate and the layers to gain consistency.
