Tiramisu cakes


I love making cake. Love it. It’s such a fun process. Baking the cake, making the filling and frosting or ganache or glaze or whatever you want
f you like tiramisu, you will love this cake. Tiramisu is an Italian dessert that layers ladyfingers with a mascarpone filling and it is usually served in pan and cut into squares. This is an elegant cake version of this beloved dessert

I am planning for my son’s birthday party and instead of having
birthday cake delivery  from outside I would like to make cake myself
this time a Tiramisu cake. it was invented in Treviso at some point in the 1960s, although others suggest its may have originated in Siena, or been inspired by another Italian dessert,zuppa inglese. Regardless of what you believe, one fact – and my favourite – remains indisputable

This recipe isn’t entirely faithful to a traditional tiramisu cake recipe.

Don’t be put off by all the stages listed below – this cake is actually incredibly easy to make. If you can bake a basic sponge, whip some cream and toast some nuts, you’re 99% of the way there.


1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix
3 egg whites (or as called for by your cake mix)
1/3 cup oil (or as called for by your cake mix)
1 1/3 cups water (or as called for by your cake mix)
2 teaspoons instant coffee powder
1/2 cup coffee
3 tablespoons Kahlua
2 Tablespoons instant espresso powder
2 Tablespoons boiling water
For the espresso syrup:
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon Kahlua

FROSTING
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons Kahlua

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 (1 ounce) square semisweet chocolate


Whisk the egg yolks and ½ cup caster sugar together until pale and thick.
Over simmering water in a double boiler slowly add ½ cup Marsala to the yolk/sugar mixture. Keep on stirring until it thickens like custard (this takes about 7-8 minutes). Set aside to cool and whisk it occasionally as it cools so it is thick and creamy. I have some cold water ready in the sink so I can dip the bowl in it and stop the cooking quickly once the zabaglione is ready.
In small bowl, mix coffee syrup ingredients. Set aside to cool.
    Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat mascarpone cheese, 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons cognac and the vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
    In small bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
    Gently fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture until combined.
    To assemble, cut each cake horizontally to make 2 layers.
    Place 1 cake layer on plate; moisten generously with coffee syrup, then spread with about 1 cup of the filling.
    Repeat with remaining 3 cake layers.
    Spread remaining filling over top and side of cake.
    Decorate the cake as desired.

The first one is room temperature cream cheese and it needs to be really room temperature.Use a spring form pan so that the sides can be removed. The bottom of the pan can be removed from the cheesecake once the cake has firmed in the refrigerator. Use two spatulas to move cake to serving platter.

Melted butter, for greasing base

4 tbs fresh lemon juice
1 600ml carton sour cream
In large mixing bowl beat cream cheese on medium speed of electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar, juice, vanilla and peel. Beat until combined.
Suggestions: before pouring cheesecake batter into pan, put whole raspberries on bottom of prepared pan and cover with cheesecake batter.
To prevent the cheesecake sticking to the knife, dip the knife into hot water and wipe dry between each cut. To serve the cheesecake whole, use an egg slide or long spatula and slide it between the biscuit base and the baking paper lining the base of the pan, carefully dislodging the cheesecake. Gently slide onto a flat serving plate
To make the filling, first dissolve the jelly crystals in the boiling water, add the lemon juice and rind and set aside to cool slightly. Meanwhile, beat the evaporated milk until thick. In another bowl beat the cream cheese until smooth and blend in the CSR Caster Sugar, vanilla and beaten evaporated milk. Fold in the warm jelly mixture.
