Combining two of my favourite things - Tiramisu and white chocolate. And then you add how easy this is and a dessert you can make in advance, which makes it one of the best desserts around – win, win!
A great recipe for a dinner party or even in a cooler bag for a picnic.
Serves 6. V.
Pictured: White Chocolate Tiramisu
Ingredients
- 120g white chocolate, roughly chopped
- 50ml single cream
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 500g thickened cream
- 12 Amaretti* biscuits – or any almond flavoured, crunchy biscuits*
- 2 – 3 tbsp espresso coffee
- 3 tsp Kahlua
- *Amaretti biscuits can be found in Norton Street Grocer and other delis that stock Italian produce.Otherwise substitute with a plain crunchy biscuit and add some Amaretto to the Kahlua.
Method
Combine the chocolate, single cream and vanilla essence in a heat proof bowl and melt slowly over simmering water – do not let the steam touch the bowl as it will be too hot.
Whisk the thickened cream to soft peaks. Fold a little of the whipped cream in the chocolate mix to loosen it a little then fold the chocolate mix gently into the cream until just combined.
Crumb 10 of the biscuits and layer into the bottom of six 1 cup capacity ramekins, or any little dishes or tea cups you like.
Mix the liqueur and the coffee together and sprinkle over the biscuits evenly.
Pour the chocolate mousse over and cover all with plastic wrap to chill for at least ½ hour or until required – can even last for a few days.
To serve – crumble the remaining biscuits over and if necessary drizzle with a little more Amaretto if the biscuits are plain.
