Its sweet and mildly bitter undertone taste will complement the dinner meal you have just had with your family or friends. You could never go wrong if you serve it on special occasions or normal Friday nights after a long week. If you are not one for desserts, you may serve this tiramisu for mere snacks in the afternoon. Or, if you would like a fancy aesthetic for breakfast, this dish is a good pair with coffee. Its easy way of preparation makes this recipe a good choice to devour indeed.

    The Origin of Tiramisu

    Tiramisu is an Italian dessert that is infused with coffee. A whipped combination of sugar, egg, and mascarpone cheese, with cocoa flavoring, is sandwiched between two layers of ladyfingers dipped in coffee and topped with a layer of whipped cream. The recipe has been transformed into a plethora of different cakes and other treats over the years. Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia are two Italian areas that frequently disagree about the origins of the dessert.

    According to the historical record, Ado Campeol, his wife Alba di Pillo, and chef Roberto Linguanotto created tiramisu on December 24, 1969, Campeol's restaurant in Treviso, Veneto. The dish was introduced to the restaurant's menu in 1972. According to legend, tiramisu has aphrodisiac properties and was invented by a brothel madam in Treviso in the nineteenth century to "address the problems they may have had with their marital obligations upon their return to their wives," according to the Accademia Del Tiramisù.

    When whipped cream or whipped egg is used in conjunction with mascarpone cream, modern variations can be rather delicious. The dish becomes lighter, thicker, and foamier as a result of this technique. In most cases, the cake is consumed chilled.

    What's in This Oreo Tiramisu Recipe?

    Oreo Cookies. One of the base flavors of your tiramisu is Oreo cookies, hence this will be an important ingredient to the recipe. Crushed Oreos for the tiramisu mixture, whole Oreo Cookies for the toppings.

    Heavy Whipping Cream. The heavy whipping cream will help the tiramisu to appear and become thicker in texture.

    Milk. A tiramisu is incomplete without the creamy and milky taste, don't forget to add milk to your mixture!

    Instant Espresso. Tiramisu is a coffee-based dessert, hence it is only natural that in this recipe, a shot of instant espresso will be added.

    Cream Cheese. Add a mild cheese-like flavor into this recipe, along with a slightly sweet and pleasant tangy taste.

    Powdered Sugar. An extra sweetness to balance the different tastes in this recipe can be possible by adding powdered sugar.

    Vanilla. It enhances all the other flavors in the recipe, so make sure you add some vanilla for a complete flavorful experience!

    Top Tips!

    • Avoid over whipping the cream, since this may cause the tiramisu to split in half when it is finished, ruining the entire form of the dish. An over whipped whip cream creates a soggy tiramisu, something you would not like to serve to anyone, even for yourself.
    • When whipping the whipped cream, aim for medium-stiff peaks, this will also make it easier when you transfer the mixture into the glasses for serving.
    • Be mindful of the instant espresso you will add to this recipe! You would only want a mildly bitter and strong undertone taste.
    • Chill your dessert before serving for a better taste!
    • The best cream cheese to use in making this recipe is Mascarpone cheese or Philadelphia.

    Recipe Variations

    • If instant espresso is unavailable, you may always use black coffee. Black coffee may not have the same strong kick that espresso has, but it will already complete this recipe.
    • Use whole milk in this recipe for a thicker and milkier outcome. For lactose intolerance concerns, consider using plant-based milk.
    • Add kosher salt to the tiramisu mixture a more enhance the flavor of the ingredients. Kosher salt won't add any salty taste.

    Serving Suggestions

    A cup of Korean strawberry milk would go well with your thick, sweet, and rich Oreo Tiramisu. Also, chocolate milk tea or white chocolate latte would either be a good pair with this tiramisu in the morning as well. You have endless choices to pair your dessert with.

    Recipe FAQs

    How can I avoid making mushy tiramisu?

    Do not overwhip the whipped cream, that is the simple secret of making a creamy yet firm tiramisu.

    Can this tiramisu recipe be decaffeinated?

    Of course, simply substitute your instant espresso with a decaffeinated version of it. You are using espresso in this recipe for its bitter and tarty flavor, and not for its strong caffeine kick.

    Can I add more toppings to tiramisu?

    You may add whip cream and crushed chocolate chip cookies as toppings alongside the Oreo cookies.

    Is Oreo Tiramisu freezer-friendly?

    Yes, it is. Keeping your tiramisu in the freezer will give a longer shelf-life as well. Keep it at room temperature a few hours before serving it.
