No bake dessert – Classic Tiramisù

Tiramisù – a classic Italian no-bake dessert. It’s easy to make, with a few ingredients but it will put a smile on everyone’s face. I love tiramisù especially in the summer because it’s so refreshing and also the Nespresso cocoa truffle gave it a special and unique taste.

What I love about this dessert is that you don’t have to be a kitchen expert to do it and also it takes a little time.

It’s one of my favorite Italian desserts and each time I make it I enjoy the fluffiness of the mascarpone cheese in combination with the eggs and the taste of coffee.

You can find a step-by-step video with the recipe on my Instagram page.
