Pistachio Tiramisu

A creamy, nutty twist on the classic Italian dessert, Pistachio Tiramisu is rich in flavor and perfect for those who enjoy simple yet elegant sweets.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 100 ml strong coffee
  • 200 g savoiardi sponge fingers
  • 300 ml double cream
  • 75 g icing sugar
  • 250 g mascarpone
  • 100 g pistachio cream (plus extra to decorate)
  • Chopped pistachios (to decorate)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the cream and icing sugar until you have soft peaks.
  2. Beat together the mascarpone and pistachio cream, then fold into the whipped cream until just combined.
  3. Pour the coffee into a shallow dish and dip the sponge fingers in it for a couple of seconds on each side.
  4. Place the soaked sponge fingers in an even layer across the base of a medium-sized dish.
  5. Spread some of the pistachio-cream mix on top of the sponge layer.
  6. Top with another layer of coffee-soaked sponge fingers followed by more pistachio cream.
  7. Repeat layering until all sponge fingers are used, ensuring the last layer is pistachio cream.
  8. Decorate with pistachio paste and create a feathered pattern with a toothpick.
  9. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight.
  10. Remove from the fridge 20 minutes before serving, sprinkle with chopped pistachios, and enjoy!

Notes

Serve with a small cup of coffee or a light dessert wine. For best taste, make it the day before to let the flavors meld.
