Description
Mini Tiramisu Cups deliver all the authentic flavors of Italy’s iconic dessert – coffee-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone, and cocoa – in elegant, perfectly portioned cups for convenience and sophistication.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup strong espresso or coffee
- 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 12 ladyfinger cookies
- Unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Brew espresso and stir in 2 tablespoons sugar and liqueur (if using). Cool to room temperature.
- Whip cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form; refrigerate.
- Mix mascarpone, 1/3 cup sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Fold whipped cream gently into mascarpone mixture to create light cream.
- Dip ladyfingers quickly (1-2 seconds) into cooled espresso mixture.
- Layer dipped ladyfingers and cream in serving cups, finishing with cream on top.
- Cover and chill 4-8 hours (overnight preferred).

Notes
Dip ladyfingers quickly to prevent sogginess. For best results, chill overnight to allow flavors to meld completely.
