For an even richer flavor, use high-quality dark cocoa powder. Don't over-soak the ladyfingers, as this will result in a soggy tiramisu. A light dusting of orange zest over the finished tiramisu adds a beautiful aroma and visual appeal. Feel free to experiment with other citrus liqueurs like Cointreau or triple sec.

StepIn a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. (7 minutes)
03
StepGently fold approximately 1/4 of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined. Then, incorporate the remaining whipped cream, ensuring a smooth and homogeneous texture. (5 minutes)
