Tiramisu—a classic Italian dessert that’s rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Traditionally made with eggs and mascarpone, it’s a favorite around the world for good reason. But today, I’m sharing my twist: a no-bake, egg-free version that’s just as delicious—and even easier to make.

Ingredients
2cupswhipping cream
1can sweetened condensed milk300ml
1package ladyfingers400g
1/2cupcream cheese
1/4cupcocoa powderor more to taste
1cupstrong brewed coffee or 1 tbsp instant coffee mixed with 1 cup hot water
Instructions
In a bowl, add the whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, and cream cheese.
Whisk until stiff peaks form.
Prepare your coffee and let it cool down (or mix instant coffee with water or milk).
Cut the ladyfingers and place them around your pan.
Dip each ladyfinger in the coffee and layer them in the pan. Add a layer of the cream mixture on top, then sprinkle with cocoa powder.
Repeat the layers until everything is used up.
Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight before serving—or freeze for a couple of hours to make it more firm.
Notes
Use cold whipping cream for best results when whipping.
Don’t soak ladyfingers too long in coffee to avoid sogginess.
Let the tiramisu chill at least 8 hours or overnight for the best texture and flavor.
You can substitute cream cheese with mascarpone if you prefer.
Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4–5 days.
This recipe can be frozen for up to 2 months—thaw overnight before serving.
For a stronger coffee flavor, add a splash of coffee liqueur (optional).
