Tiramisu has many iterations, all being delicious and created with fresh mascarpone cream and Ladyfingers. This recipe here is a roll cake combined with a traditional cream flavour. In this recipe, I have tried not to use rum for the sake of helping those who cannot afford rum still make tiramisu and enjoy it.

70 grams granulated sugar

15 grams cocoa powder

In a medium bowl, add the yolks, 20 grams sugar, neutral oil, milk, vanilla and mix well.
Step 3

Sift the baking powder and cocoa powder into the yolk mixture, then fold evenly.

Beat egg whites with 70 grams of sugar until soft peaks are reached in a stand mixer or bowl with a handheld mixer. Fold 1/3 of the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture.

Bake the cake for 15 minutes, monitor to make sure the cake is done by inserting a cake tester and making sure it comes out clean. When the cake is done, let the cake cool.

Step 9

Mix the mascarpone together with the whipped cream, divide evenly among two bowls.
Step 10

Add coffee to one of the bowls and mix well.
Step 11

Place the remaining bowl in the refrigerator to preserve. Evenly spread the coffee cream on top of the cooled down cake and roll up, store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours so that the cake is hard enough to cut.
Step 12

After 2 hours, take out the cake and spread the remaining cream on the surface according to your preference, cover with cocoa powder to make the cake more flavorful and enjoy.
