A rich and creamy Gluten Free Tiramisu made with espresso-soaked gluten-free ladyfingers and a luxurious mascarpone cream. This no-bake Italian-inspired dessert is elegant, easy to prepare, and perfect for making ahead for stress-free entertaining.

Ingredients

4 large egg yolks

1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided

3/4 cup heavy cream

1 cup mascarpone cheese (8 ounces)

3 cups espresso or very strong coffee, cooled

1/4 cup amaretto, coffee liqueur, or cognac

Approximately 24 gluten-free ladyfingers

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1–2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, shaved or grated (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the egg yolks with 1/4 cup of the sugar until very pale, thick, and nearly tripled in volume. Set aside.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar until soft peaks form. Add the mascarpone and continue whipping until smooth and holding medium peaks.
  3. Gently fold the mascarpone mixture into the whipped egg yolks until fully combined and smooth.
  4. In a shallow bowl, mix the espresso and amaretto (or chosen liqueur).
  5. Lightly dust the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder.
  6. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, being careful not to soak, and arrange half of them in the dish, rounded side up.
  7. Spread half of the mascarpone cream evenly over the ladyfingers.
  8. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and cream.
  9. Dust the top with the remaining cocoa powder, cover tightly, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  10. Before serving, top with shaved or grated bittersweet chocolate if desired.

Notes

This dessert tastes even better when made a day in advance.

Dip ladyfingers very quickly to avoid sogginess.

Use certified gluten-free ladyfingers to ensure the recipe remains gluten free.

Alcohol can be omitted for a non-alcoholic version.

Best enjoyed within 2–3 days when refrigerated.
