Easy Tiramisu

 

250g full-fat mascarpone cheese 

300ml double cream 

2 tsp vanilla extract 

4 tbsp icing sugar, sifted 

125ml strong coffee, cooled 

6 tbsp whiskey

12 sponge fingers 

2 x Chocolate Flake

Measure the mascarpone and about 50ml of the cream into a large bowl, whisking until smooth. Slowly add the remaining cream and whisk again into soft peaks, being careful not to over-mix or it will be too thick. Fold in the vanilla extract and icing sugar. 

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine the coffee and whiskey.  Dip six of the sponge fingers into the coffee and whiskey mixture. Arrange the soaked sponge fingers in the base of the dish. 

Spoon half of the cream mixture on top and one crumbled chocolate flake.  Dip the remaining sponge fingers in the coffee and whiskey. Place on the cream layer, then spoon the remaining cream mixture on top, levelling neatly. Sprinkle with the remaining crumbled chocolate flake before serving at room temperature.
