Tiramisu, an Italian dessert made from ladyfingers soaked in coffee, cocoa, and rum, is often considered to be the best classic Italian dessert. The reason for this is that it's easy to make, tastes great, and looks beautiful. While many people like to use a store-bought mix for their tiramisu, it is also possible to make a homemade version. This easy-to-follow recipe is a must-try for those who love Olive Gardens tiramisu.
The Olive Garden Tiramisu is a delicious and creamy dessert that can be enjoyed anytime of the day. The dessert comes in two parts: the Tiramisu and the whipped cream. The Tiramisu is made of Sicilian milk, ladyfingers, pistachios, and chocolate chips. It is followed by a rich whipped cream that makes it a perfect ending to any meal.
For hot cocoa, in a small saucepan, mix cocoa, sugar and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in milk until blended; transfer to a shallow bowl. Cool completely.
For tiramisu, in a heatproof bowl of a stand mixer, whisk egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until blended. Place over simmering water in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisking constantly, heat mixture until a thermometer reads 160°, 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat. With the whisk attachment of a stand mixer, beat on high speed until thick and pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Add mascarpone; beat on medium speed until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed.
In another bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add remaining sugar; beat until soft peaks form. Fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture.
To assemble, spread a third of the cream mixture into a 13x9-in. baking dish. Quickly dip half of the ladyfingers halfway into cooled cocoa; arrange over cream. Repeat layers. Spread with remaining cream mixture. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and cinnamon. Refrigerate, covered, at least 8 hours or overnight.
