Paolo's Nutella Tiramisu

Directions

 

Espresso Soaking Syrup

  • Mix warm espresso, Hazelnut Liqeuer & sugar together. Set aside

 

Tiramisu Filling

  • Whip egg yolks and granulated sugar on medium speed using a hand mixer till they get some volume and get pale in color. This will take about 4-5 minutes.

  • Add the mascarpone and mix until combined.

  • Add in the Nutella and mix until combined.

  • In separate bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla. When mixture starts to get stiff, add in Hazelnut Liqeuer 1 Tbsp. at a time. Continue to whip until stiff.

  • Gently fold the Hazelnut Liqeuer whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.

 

Assembly

  • Dip 1 ladyfinger at a time into the espresso soaking syrup and arrange in neat rows until the dish is covered.

  • Spread half of the tiramisu filling on top smoothing out with a spatula.

  • Repeat with the second layer of ladyfingers, arranging them in the opposite direction.

  • Spread remaining tiramisu filling on top and smooth out.

  • Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate a minimum of 4-5 hours, preferably over night.

  • Dust with cocoa powder before serving.
