Ingredients
To prepare four beautiful jars of this delicacy, you will need the following:
250g Nutella cookies: You can use cookies already flavored with Nutella or opt for a crispy version with speculaas.
3 eggs: Separate them, whisking the yolks until stiff, the egg whites for the filling, and the egg whites for lightness.
80g caster sugar: For sweetening and balancing the flavors.
250g mascarpone: The key ingredient for the creamy texture of tiramisu.
200g Nutella: For coating and creating irresistible chocolate layers.
Preparation method :
Preparation
1. Prepare the ingredients
Separate the eggs: yolks on one side, egg whites on the other. Make sure the bowl containing the egg whites is free of any egg yolk residue for optimal mixing.
Break the biscuits: If you’re using Nutella or speculaas biscuits, break them into small pieces, but not too finely, so they stay crispy.
2. Make the cream
Mix the egg yolks and sugar: Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture is white and creamy.
Add the mascarpone and Nutella: Gently fold the mascarpone into the egg yolk mixture to keep the consistency light and fluffy. Then gradually add the Nutella until a smooth cream forms.
3. Assemble the tiramisu
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form: Make sure they’re very stiff so they don’t break during mixing.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the mascarpone mixture to prevent them from breaking.
Assemble in glass containers:
Start with a layer of biscuits, followed by a generous layer of Nutella cream. Repeat the process until the jars are full.
4. Refrigerate.
Let it rest: Refrigerate your verrines for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to blend and the texture to firm up.
Tips and variations
For coffee lovers: For a traditional touch, lightly soak the biscuits in a coffee mixture before placing them in the jars.
Decoration: Just before serving, sprinkle on some cocoa powder or a few chocolate shavings for a sophisticated finish.
Conclusion
: There you have it, your Nutella tiramisu is ready to conquer all the gourmets at the table. At once rich and subtle, this dessert promises to transform your shared moments into true moments of pleasure. Feel free to customize it and make it your own, because cooking is, after all, an art where creativity reigns supreme.
