Ingredients for Matchamisù:
-
For the Tiramisù Cream:
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 eggs
- 100g sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 500g mascarpone
-
For the Matcha Soak:
- 12g (2 tsp) Matcha Union Matcha Powder
- 250ml hot water
-
Ladyfingers
-
Extra matcha powder for dusting
Let's Make Matchamisù:
-
Prepare the Cream: Begin by whisking together the egg yolk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the mascarpone cheese until you have a creamy, homogeneous mixture. Set aside.
-
Brew the Matcha: Mix Matcha Union Matcha Powder with warm water, whisking/stirring until fully integrated. Allow it to cool slightly—this will be your ladyfinger soak.
-
Layer it Up: Dip ladyfingers one at a time into the brewed matcha, ensuring they're soaked but not overly soggy. Arrange a layer of these matcha-soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of your serving dish.
-
Cream it On: Spread half of the matcha mascarpone mixture over the first layer of ladyfingers. Follow this with another layer of soaked ladyfingers, and then another layer of the cream.
-
Chill: Cover your dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
-
Serve with a Dusting: Just before serving, sift a light dusting of Matcha Union Matcha Powder over the top for a beautiful finish and a hint of matcha flavor.
Bon appétit!
