Tiramisu is one of my favorite desserts and Pasta loves it as well. Needless to say, I make it at home once in a while. This is not something I make often as I am very particular about the ingredients while making my perfect Tiramisu. In my Tiramisu recipe, I do not skip the vital ingredients, and I like to replace those.

Ingredients needed for Tiramisu
I love the taste and texture of this Italian dessert. Coffee for sure is one of the main ingredients and so is Egg. In this recipe, I am not sharing how to make eggless Tiramisu which is very much popular here in India. Though I will be sharing how you can make non-alcoholic Tiramisu considering I make that for my daughter. In our portion, I add bourbon whiskey. Ladyfinger biscuits are much needed and I do not replace those with sponge cake. Last but not the least, this calls for a perfect custard which I cook with Eggs. Mascarpone is one of the main ingredients for making this classic dessert. However, at times I use cream cheese instead.
Making Tiramisu in Indian weather
This is one of the important things to consider. Indian weather is different and hence you need to manage the ingredients accordingly. In the Tiramisu recipe, I will let you know how to do that.
