Mille-Crepe Tiramisu for Two
Indulge in a decadent forty-layer tiramisu, made with just five ingredients in under thirty minutes! For 80 Layers - DOUBLE THIS RECIPE!
Ingredients
- 10 crepes
- 1 cups heavy whipping cream
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ½ cup mascarpone cheese
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons espresso powder optional, mix with cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to whisk together the cream and sugar until light and fluffy. Fold in the mascarpone cheese until smooth.
- Use a cutting board or similar work surface. Start with the first crepe and spread an even layer of the whipped cream mixture all the way to the edges of the crepe. Place a second crepe on top so the edges are lined up, then gently spread an even layer of the whipped cream mixture to the edges. Repeat with the remaining eight crepes so that they are all stacked with aligned edges.
- Spread the whipped cream filling in a thin layer on the top of the crepes. Use a sharp knife to cut through the center of the crepes. Use a spatula to lift one half of the crepes and carefully place it on top of the other half so that the curve of the crepes is aligned.
- Cut the stacked crepes in half again, and use the spatula to lift one half and place it on top of the other so that there are forty layers of crepes and filling.
- Use cut parchment paper to cover the exposed edges and curve of the crepes. Press just hard enough that the parchment sticks to the tiramisu.
- Whisk together the cocoa powder and espresso powder, if using. Use a mesh strainer to sprinkle the cocoa powder mixture on the top of the tiramisu so that the entire top is covered in cocoa powder. Remove the parchment paper to reveal clean edges.
- Transfer the tiramisu to a serving plate. Chill until ready to serve, or eat right away at room temperature. Serve with a kiss. Enjoy!
