Instructions
- 1
Dip each ladyfinger into the toffee sauce for 3-5 seconds on each side. They should be soft and pliable but not too wet.
Tip: Be careful not to soak them too much.
- 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, caster sugar, and salt until light and fluffy.
Tip: Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl for even mixing.
- 3
Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval.
Tip: Stir until smooth and glossy.
- 4
In a large serving dish, create a layer of ladyfingers. Drizzle with a little toffee sauce and sprinkle with toffee bits.
Tip: This will help prevent the ladyfingers from sticking to the dish.
- 5
Spread half of the melted chocolate over the ladyfingers.
Tip: Make sure to cover the entire surface.
- 6
Repeat the layers, starting with the ladyfingers, toffee sauce, toffee bits, and finally the remaining chocolate.
Tip: Finish with a sprinkle of toffee bits on top.
- 7
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Tip: This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- 8
Just before serving, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Tip: Be careful not to over-whip the cream.
- 9
Top the tiramisu with the whipped cream and sprinkle with a pinch of espresso powder.
Tip: This adds a nice textural element and a boost of caffeine flavor.
