Preparation Method
1. Prepare the Ingredients
Separate the eggs: yolks on one side, whites on the other. Make sure the bowl of whites contains no traces of yolk for optimal whipping.
Break the cookies: If you choose Nutella or speculoos cookies, break them into small pieces, but not too finely to maintain their crunch.
2. Create the cream
Mix the egg yolks and sugar: Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture whitens and becomes creamy.
Add the mascarpone and Nutella: Gently fold the mascarpone into the egg yolk mixture to maintain the fluffy texture. Then, gradually add the Nutella to obtain a smooth cream.
3. Assemble the tiramisu
Beat the egg whites: Make sure they are stiff so they don’t fall during mixing.
Gently fold: Gently fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture to prevent them from breaking.
Assemble in verrines: Start with a layer of cookies, followed by a generous layer of Nutella cream. Repeat until the glasses are full.
4. Refrigeration
Let stand: Refrigerate your glasses 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: Lightly soak the biscuits in a coffee mixture before placing them in the glasses for a traditional touch.
Decoration: Just before serving, add a little cocoa powder or a few chocolate shavings on top for an elegant finish.
