This tiramisu recipe uses ricotta so does not require the traditional mascarpone cheese, which can be both expensive and difficult to find. The actual preparation time is short, but as it must age for at least 10 hours, this is a dessert best prepared a day ahead of time.
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 (12 ounce) container ricotta cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 fluid ounces dark rum (Optional)
- 2 cups strong brewed coffee
- 1 (12 ounce) package ladyfingers
- 1 cup white sugar
Directions
Step 1
Beat cream and 3 tablespoons sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 2
Beat ricotta cheese, sour cream, and sugar together in a bowl. Fold in whipped cream; add rum.
Step 3
Pour coffee into a bowl. Dip ends of 1/2 of the ladyfingers in coffee. Arrange ladyfingers dipped-side down into a single layer in a 2- to 2 1/2-inch deep rectangular serving dish. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta-cream mixture on top. Repeat dipping and arranging remaining ladyfingers; spread remaining ricotta-cream mixture on top. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until fully chilled, 10 to 12 hours.
Tips
Coffee liqueur may be substituted for the coffee.
