Did you know Tiramisu means “Cheer me up” in Italian? The name might come from the fact that the sugar, egg yolks and alcohol are supposed to be fortifiant and gives you energy. Or perhaps it could be how every bite of it makes you happier!
This tiramisu is a very fresh and a light dessert even after a hearty meal. Its lightness comes from all the whisked ingredients in the cream and the easy light baking, which makes it enjoyable during the summer.
Alcohol is not mandatory in the recipe.
If you have enjoyed the raspberry macarons or if you want to try something different, you should try the salted caramel version!
The macaron shells are the same from the raspberry macaron recipe. Just replace the raspberry jam with this salted caramel recipe.
It’s sticky, sweet, and smooth; it’s madness, it’s just so good! Yes, maybe I like caramel a bit too much…
Decided to combine chocolate mousse and a cake to create an orange chocolate mousse cake.
I didn’t want the orange flavor to be too strong so it’s only in the base. The 2 other layers are pure chocolate.
Optional: You can change the recipe to include chocolate in all 3 layers; same with the orange zest, or even add a layer of orange jelly in the middle layer.
