Tiramisu cheesecake is a delicious and irresistible dessert, the ideal synthesis between cheesecake, the symbolic cake of American pastry, and tiramisu, a famous dessert appreciated by adults and children. It is actually a cold, uncooked cheesecake, which basically, instead of biscuits mixed with butter, includes a layer of ladyfingers soaked in coffee, as in tiramisu. The cream is made up of egg yolks, mascarpone, cream cheese, crème fraîche and gelatin, for a result that is perfectly in line with the two traditional recipes.
To consume the tiramisu cheesecake safely, we have provided for the pasteurization of the egg yolks, which are whipped 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 egg yolks at the supermarket (you can find them in the refrigerated counter): you can then work them with the sugar without preparing the syrup.
For an even more aromatic result, you can enrich the coffee syrup with a drop of rum or sambuca. You can enrich the cream with chocolate chips and decorate the surface with white chocolate flakes and red fruits, for an elegant and pleasant contrast. A dessert to enjoy in the company of your closest friends, at the end of a lunch or a special dinner.
