I promised you guys a Tiramisu and here it is. I have made a few substitutions so it’s not your usual authentic Italian recipe, look away now if you like brandy in your puddings. I went a bit cheap and used instant hot chocolate instead of cocoa powder (because I didn’t have any) What would Nigella say?! I don’t think she’d mind as it turned out delicious regardless, I did add a bit of Green & Blacks dark chocolate just to posh it up a bit!
Ingredients
- 9 teaspoons instant espresso powder dissolved in 350ml / 1½ cups water (cooled)
- 250 ml baileys
- 2 packets (400g) savoiardi biscuits
- 2 large eggs
- 75 grams caster sugar
- 500 grams mascarpone cheese
- 2 ½ teaspoons instant hot chocolate powder
- 2 teaspoons grated dark chocolate to decorate
Method
- mix the coffee with 175ml of the baileys and add to a bowl big enough to dip the savoiardi biscuits in.
- dip the biscuits into the liquid don’t leave them to soak and dip them one at a time or they will go all soggy.
- add a layer of biscuits to the bottom of a medium sized dish
- separate the eggs setting the two yolks aside and keeping just one of the whites for later
- whisk the egg yolks with the caster sugar until thick and pale yellow
- whisk the baileys and mascarpone into the egg mixture until thick and creamy
- whisk the egg white until it is thick and frothy and then fold this into the creamy mixture by hand
- add a layer of the cream to the top of the saviardi biscuits and repeat with another layer of dipped biscuits and top off with cream.
- leave to set in the fridge, overnight is best.
- dust with the chocolate powder and sprinkle grated chocolate over to decorate
There you have it, an easy peasy version of a classic dessert (and it’s not just for Christmas, folks) Enjoy!

![[AD - Paid Partnership] Happy International Women's Day! Here I am with the two little ladies in my life, this photo was taken moments before the mayhem and total chaos of 'The School Run.' We've all been there, right?! But, imagine dropping your girls off to school and them NOT having sanitary protection - wouldn't that be awful? The stark reality is that thousands of teenagers in the UK are missing school because they don't have sanitary wear. I had a chat with Holly about the Always #EndPeriodPoverty campaign and she told me that at her college there is a box where girls can put their spare sanitary towels and tampons so that anyone without access to sanitary protection can use them. @always_uk_ireland believes every student should have access to sanitary protection and so far they've donated over 14 million pads to school students in need. And now @tampax_uk has joined forces with Always to expand the donation drive, together partnering with @TheRedBoxProjectUK a community organisation that collects donated period products and distributes them to schools for free. Here's where YOU can help - for starters, let's talk about periods more and NORMALISE them 💜This is so so important. Secondly, be aware that for every pack of Always Ultra, Always Platinum, TAMPAX Pearl or Pearl Compak purchased in stores from today until 21st April, a product will be donated to a student in need. And finally, PLEASE LIKE and/or COMMENT 👈🏻😍 – as another donation will be made to The Red Box Project for every like and comment on this post too! Isn't that amazing?

Could you leave the coffee out, make it and send it to me ;) Looks amazing! xxx
YUM!xx #TheList
My husband love tiramisu and we have loads of Baileys from Christmas so I’m pinning to try it later. Sadly, it won’t look like yours
You recipes always look so delicious! Yum :) #TheList
OMG you have 2 of my most fav things ever in one recipe. I literally love you!!! Will you be my new BFF? I am such a rubbish cook but I may have to make this with an extra large glass of iced baileys to go. Thank you!
Oh my goodness how could you do this to me! I am trying to be good as I go on holiday soon and you torture me with this amazing recipe ;-) #thelist
That is indeed a very enticing tiramisu. I’m so flat out at the mo that I doubt I’ll get a chance to make one any time soon! Thanks for hosting #TheList
OMG Baileys anything is going to be a winner right? (As I sit here with a copy of The Fast Diet next to me – pah haha!) #thelist
YUM! This looks and sounds amazing! And the fact that it has baileys in it means that the kids can’t have any, more for us adults!
Now that is a dessert I could get on board with! Just without the coffee. Yummy! #TheList
Definitely not just for Christmas! This looks a doable version of a dessert I love. Will have to give it a go :) #TheList
Two things I’ve been missing most during pregnancy – alcohol and amazing desserts like this that feature raw egg. This fab recipe is on my wish list (along with sushi and very runny cheese) once the baby arrives.
Oh my, that looks DIVINE! When I saw your beautiful flowers from Aby I thought there was nothing I’d prefer to receive from a friend. And then I saw this… Xxxx
#TheList
Oooh. I love tiramisu and I love Baileys so this is like the dream dessert for me :-) Thanks for co-hosting #thelist Amy – this is my first time since you took over from Hannah but hopefully not the last!
This sounds amazing! Totally inspired! #TheList
I love tiramisu will be giving this recipe a try mind you be lucky if it looks as yummy as yours thanks for hosting #thelist
Oh wow this sounds yummy and creamy heaven X #thelist
Wow this looks amazing, I have an issue with coffee in recipes but I thin I may be tempted to try this! #TheList x
I can’t stand coffee (makes disgusted face) so tiramisu has always been off for me. Love Baileys though, and your recipe sounds lush Amy! xx #thelist
Oh this looks totally delicious, and I’ve never made a tiramisu so this is on my must try list! xx
I’ve been looking for a decent tiramisu recipe for my other half – he just loves it. I will give this one a go – thanks for sharing! #TheList
Now this isn’t fair – it’s pics like these that make me very regretful that I don’t like coffee – and I LOVE Green and Blacks! My husband would divorce me for a tiramisu I think so I won’t show him this hee hee! Mim x x #TheList (very late!)
