A quick little pick-me-up made from tiramisu leftovers and a shot of fresh coffee.
I'm getting ready to launch my tiramisu in a jar soon and have been sending out a few jars for beta taste testing. After prepping a batch of my mascarpone mixture, I had a little leftover in the fridge.
Instead of letting it sit, I figured... why not turn it into a cup of something comforting? Just a scoop of the mixture, a shot of coffee from my moka pot, a dusting of cocoa, and a few savoiardi on the side. Simple and satisfying.
Tiramisu itself has humble but rich roots. It’s an Italian dessert that means “pick me up,” originally from the Veneto region. Traditionally made with ladyfingers dipped in espresso and layered with mascarpone and cocoa, it's one of those desserts that feels indulgent but is surprisingly easy to riff on.
This version skips the layering and serves everything in a glass, almost like a dessert-style affogato.
If you’ve got some leftover mascarpone mixture or just want a quick way to get your tiramisu fix, give this a try. It’s creamy, bold, and barely takes five minutes. Perfect for a solo dessert or an elegant little treat when you’re short on time.
