Description
A refreshing, no-bake twist on the classic Italian dessert, this Eggless Matcha Tiramisu replaces espresso with matcha and omits eggs for a lighter, creamy fusion treat perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups heavy cream (cold)
1 cup mascarpone cheese (softened)
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp matcha powder (plus extra for dusting)
1 1/4 cups hot water
2–3 tbsp honey or sugar (to sweeten matcha liquid)
1 pack of ladyfinger biscuits (gluten-free optional)
Instructions
- Whisk 2 tablespoons of matcha powder with hot water and honey or sugar until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Add mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the whipped cream. Beat until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled matcha mixture and arrange a single layer in a serving dish.
- Spread half of the cream mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Repeat with another layer of dipped ladyfingers and the remaining cream.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- Before serving, dust the top generously with matcha powder.
Notes
Dip ladyfingers briefly to avoid sogginess.
For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut cream and a dairy-free cream cheese alternative.
Use gluten-free ladyfingers or sponge cake for a gluten-free version.
Add citrus zest or almond extract to the cream for extra flavor.
Build individual servings in jars or glasses for easy portioning and presentation.
