Description
Silky vegan tiramisu delights coffee and dessert enthusiasts with classic Italian flavors. Layers of cashew cream, espresso-soaked ladyfingers, and cocoa dust create a luxurious plant-based indulgence you’ll savor to the last bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pack vegan ladyfingers (or sponge cake)
- 1 cup (240 ml) strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/2 cup (75 g) cashews (soaked for at least 2 hours)
- 1 cup (240 ml) canned coconut milk (or other non-dairy milk)
- 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
- 2 tbsps (30 ml) maple syrup (or agave syrup)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (25 g) cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
- Transform soaked cashews, coconut milk, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and maple syrup into a silky, luxurious cream by blending thoroughly until completely smooth and uniform in texture.
- Prepare a rich coffee bath and swiftly dip vegan ladyfingers, ensuring they’re moistened but not waterlogged, then carefully arrange them as the initial foundation in your chosen serving vessel.
- Lavishly spread the creamy cashew mixture over the coffee-infused ladyfingers, creating an even, sumptuous layer that completely covers the base.
- Repeat the layering process: dunk fresh ladyfingers into coffee, position them atop the cream, then generously cover with another decadent layer of cashew cream.
- Seal the tiramisu with a protective cover and allow it to rest and develop flavors in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, preferably overnight at 40°F, which enables the ingredients to harmonize and intensify.
- Just before presentation, delicately sift cocoa powder across the surface, creating an elegant and traditional finishing touch that adds a subtle bitter contrast to the creamy dessert.
Notes
- Soak cashews overnight to ensure ultra-smooth, silky cream texture without graininess.
- Use strong espresso or cold brew coffee for more intense flavor depth in ladyfinger layers.
- Choose organic cocoa powder for a richer, more authentic dusting that elevates the dessert’s appearance.
- Replace maple syrup with alternative sweeteners like agave or date syrup for varied taste profiles.
