tiramisu cheesecake a delicious and irresistible dessert, the ideal synthesis between cheesecake, a symbol of American pastry, and tiramisu, a famous dessert loved by young and old. In fact, it is a cold and unbaked cheesecake, whose base, instead of biscuits mixed with butter, consists of a layer of ladyfingers soaked in coffee, just like tiramisu. The cream is made with egg yolks, mascarpone, cheese spread, fresh cream and jelly to achieve a result that perfectly combines the two traditional recipes.
For a completely safe consumption of the Tiramisu cheesecake, we have foreseen the pasteurization of the egg yolks, which are beaten together with a syrup brought to a temperature of 121°C. If you want to avoid this somewhat delicate technical step, you can buy already pasteurized liquid yolks in the supermarket (you can find them in the refrigerated section): this way you can process them with sugar without preparing the syrup.
For an even more aromatic result, you can enrich the coffee syrup with a drop of rum or sambuca. For an elegant and pleasant contrast, you can enrich the cream with chocolate chips and decorate the surface with white chocolate flakes and red fruits. A dessert to enjoy in the company of your closest friends at the end of a special lunch or dinner.
