Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Cream Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. Be careful not to overmix to maintain a light texture.
2. Make the Coffee Dip
In a shallow bowl, combine the cooled coffee or espresso with the coffee liqueur (if using).
Dip the ladyfinger pieces into the coffee mixture briefly, ensuring they don’t become too soggy.
3. Assemble the Pudding Cups
In small serving cups or glasses, layer the soaked ladyfinger pieces at the bottom.
Add a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture on top.
Repeat the layers until the cups are filled, finishing with a layer of cream.
4. Chill and Garnish
Refrigerate the pudding cups for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, dust the tops with cocoa powder and garnish with shaved chocolate or chocolate chips, if desired.
Tips for Perfect Tiramisu Pudding Cups
Use Fresh Ingredients: Freshly brewed coffee and high-quality mascarpone cheese make a noticeable difference in flavor.
Chill Thoroughly: Allowing the dessert to chill ensures the layers set and flavors blend beautifully.
Customizable Portions: Use mini cups for bite-sized servings or larger glasses for a more indulgent treat.
