Mom and I decided to take a shot at tiramisu this Christmas (chalk it up to watching too much GBBO). The family consensus is that we can do it every year if we want, so I think it turned out pretty well!
The glamour shots:
We used this recipe:
Here's how to make homemade tiramisu, step-by-step, with egg yolks, sugar, rum, mascarpone, whipped cream, and coffee-dipped ladyfingers. This classic recipe is a great make-ahead dessert for holiday gatherings or special occasions.
It calls for the tiramisu to chill for 8 to 24 hours.
We put it together Christmas Eve afternoon for Christmas Day dessert, and because of how things timed out, we probably left it for a little longer than 24. But I don’t think that compromised it at all.
A few progress photos:
Thanks for looking!

It was rich, but simultaneously much lighter than I think we were expecting. It’s decadent but also fluffy .

Thanks, everyone! I finished my leftovers last night, and it was still holding up pretty well.
