Ingredients
– 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
– 2/3 cup light brown sugar
– 8 oz mascarpone cheese, room temperature
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
– 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
– 1 cup heavy whipping cream
– 1 1/2 cups prepared cold espresso
– 1 package Lady Fingers (about 7 oz)
– 1 splash coffee-flavored liqueur (optional)
– Unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with this creamy pumpkin tiramisu is as simple as gathering your ingredients and following a few easy steps. Begin by preparing your setup, including brewing strong coffee and letting it cool. This sets the stage for a smooth process that even beginners can handle;
2-Mixing the creamy base: In a mixing bowl, blend the mascarpone cheese with pumpkin puree, light brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice until it’s silky smooth. This step captures the essence of fall in every scoop. Next, whip the heavy whipping cream to soft peaks and gently fold it into the mixture for that airy, luxurious texture;
3-Assembling the tiramisu: Now, pour the cold espresso into a shallow bowl, adding a splash of coffee-flavored liqueur if you like. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the mixture to moisten them without making them soggy, then arrange a layer in your pan. Spread half of the creamy pumpkin mixture over it evenly. Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers and top with the rest of the mixture. For the final touch, dust with unsweetened cocoa powder. Chill for 3 to 4 hours or overnight to let the flavors meld.
