Ingredients
Vanilla Walnut Whipped Cream
- 2 cups California walnuts
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
Tiramisu
- 1 1/4 cups mascarpone cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup cold strong coffee, divided
- 1 1/2 (3-oz.) packages soft ladyfingers (18 small ladyfingers)
- 1 cup California walnuts
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation
- To prepare walnut whipped cream, puree walnuts and water in a blender for 2 minutes or until very light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, honey, vanilla and salt and blend for 30 seconds more.
- To prepare mascarpone cream, whisk about 1/4th of the walnut whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese. Add 3 tablespoons coffee, powdered sugar and vanilla and whisk again. Lightly whisk in the remaining walnut whipped cream.
- Transfer the remaining coffee to a shallow bowl. Lightly dip the bottom of 18 ladyfingers in coffee and place in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Spread with half the mascarpone cream and sprinkle with 3/4 cup chopped walnuts.
- Add another layer of coffee dipped ladyfingers and cover with remaining
mascarpone cream. Sift cocoa over the top and sprinkle with remaining walnuts. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. - Carefully cut into 9 squares and remove from pan with a flat spatula to serve.
