There are a few different ways to make tiramisu, but the classic Italian Tiramisu recipe is actually quite simple. The most important thing is to start with good quality ingredients. The traditional tiramisu recipe calls for Ladyfingers. These are light, airy biscuits that soak up coffee and liqueur perfectly. You can usually find them in the baking aisle of your grocery store, or order them online. Next, you'll need a good coffee. It's important to use a strong coffee so that the tiramisu has a nice coffee flavor. You can use espresso, but regular coffee will work fine as well. Just make sure it's a dark roast. For the liqueur (if you want to add it), you'll want to try marsala wine. This is a type of Italian fortified wine that's fairly sweet. You can find it in most liquor stores. If you can't find it, you can substitute sherry, port, or Madeira. Finally, you'll need a filling. Traditionally, tiramisu is made with mascarpone cheese. This is an Italian cream cheese that's similar to a deflated version of American cream cheese. You can usually find it near the specialty cheeses in your grocery store.
