Lyre’s Non-Alcoholic Tiramisu

We know that you might want to choose not to use alcohol when cooking, which is why this tiramisu recipe uses Lyre’s Coffee Originale and Lyre’s American Malt to give you the same flavour with none of the booze.

Ingredients

• 180ml black coffee (preferably espresso)
• 40g caster sugar
• 60ml Lyre’s Coffee Originale
• 30ml Lyre’s American Malt Spirit
• 500g mascarpone
• 450ml thickened cream
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 20g icing sugar
• 50g dark chocolate cocoa powder (for dusting)
• Approximately 30 x Savoiardi sponge finger biscuits

For this recipe, you will need a rectangular baking dish, approximately 25cm x 30cm

Method

Begin by combining the caster sugar to the black coffee whilst hot and stir to dissolve, then mix in the Lyre’s Coffee Liqueur and Lyre’s American Malt Spirit.

Place in a bowl and set aside. This will be the liquid used to soak the Savoiardi sponge biscuits.

Place the mascarpone, thickened cream, vanilla and icing sugar in a bowl and whisk until soft peaks form.

To assemble, briefly dunk the Savoiardi biscuits one at a time in the coffee mixture and line the bottom of your baking dish with the biscuits. Be sure to cover the entire surface and if necessary, break some of the biscuits to fit in place.

Next, spoon over the mascarpone mixture and smooth over the surface of the soaked biscuits. Sift a layer of cocoa over the top of the mascarpone and repeat this process again so that you have 2 layers of soaked biscuit, mascarpone and cocoa.

Chill for at least 2 hours before serving to allow time for the tiramisu to set. Use a large spatula or spoon to serve.
