Tiramisu, meaning "pick me up", "cheer me up" or "lift me up" is a popular coffee-flavoured Italian cream dessert. Making this quick eggless & alcohol free tiramisu is pretty simple.
 Tiramisu Recipe is made of ladyfingers dipped in coffee, layered with a whipped mixture of heavy cream, sugar, espresso and mascarpone cheese and flavoured with cocoa and ground coffee.

This quicker version isn't less delicious, and I find reasons to make it all the time. With the filling being eggless and liquor free, the dessert is much quicker to put together.

This was just marvellously delicious. It was the kind of dessert that made my kids to take the whole dish and a spoon and hide away in the bedroom where no one can see them slowly devour and enjoy it all.

The mascarpone, makes a thick yet airy mixture when it comes together with whipped cream. If you want a richer filling, you can add more mascarpone (1/2 - 1 cup). if you want lighter filling, you can add more whipping cream (1/2 - 1 cup).

Lady fingers, are low density, dry and sweet sponge Italian biscuits roughly shaped like a large finger. They are principle ingredient in many Italian dessert recipes and for tiramisu.

Secret Ingredient:
Corn Starch, adding 1tablespoon of corn starch for 1 cup of heavy cream just before you whip it. The starch will absorb some of the liquid in the cream, making a firmer and more stable whipped cream. This will provide additional structure when you fold in the mascarpone cream, preventing the final cream from becoming watery.

Whipping cream using a blender version, I have always been a fan of doing things the quick and easy (lazy) way. Stir ingredients together in a blender/mixer jar and blend for 15-30 seconds, in case if you are using hand blender- moving the blender up and down to be sure that all the cream gets mixed, until soft peaks form. Thats it you are ready with your whipping in less than a minute to use it in the recipe.
