Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 8 servings
Cuisine: mediterranean
Ingredients: 1 1/4 cups strong black coffee, room temperature (I used Dunkin' Donuts; 3/4 tablespoon instant espresso powder or 1 ½ Tbs instant coffee; 3 tablespoons dark rum (I used Kahlua instead); 3 large egg yolks; cup sugar; 1/8 teaspoon table salt; 12 ounces mascarpone cheese (cold); cup heavy cream (cold); 7 ounces ladyfingers (I used 24)- use hard ones not soft; 2 tablespoons cocoa, preferably Dutch-processed (Ghirardelli Ground Chocolate and 2 tablespoons semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, grated (optional)

“The Ultimate Tiramisu is a dessert that serves 8. One serving contains 537 calories, 8g of protein, and 35g of fat. For 97 cents per serving, this recipe covers 6% of your daily requirements of vitamins and minerals. This recipe from Foodista has 1 fans. Not a lot of people really liked this Mediterranean dish. A mixture of strong coffee, sugar, heavy cream, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so scrumptious. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes roughly 45 minutes. All things considered, we decided this recipe deserves a spoonacular score of 16%. This score is rather bad. The ultimate makeover: Tiramisu, Classic Tiramisu And A Coffee-free Chocolate-orange Tiramisu, and Tiramisu are very similar to this recipe.”

Too many ingredients are not matched to our nutrition table to give a fair estimate.

How we estimate: we add up the ingredients using the Kenya Food Composition Tables (2018) and USDA FoodData Central, then divide by the servings. It’s an estimate, not a measurement, and not medical advice.
