You know how sometimes you want to impress people but don't have all day? This toffee tiramisu is exactly that recipe. It comes together in just an hour total, which means you can have an elegant dessert ready without spending your entire afternoon in the kitchen. The best part is that dark chocolate, one of our star ingredients, is packed with antioxidants that make indulging feel a little less guilty. Ladyfingers soaked in strong coffee create that classic tiramisu magic, but the toffee sauce and bits take it to a whole new level of decadence. Trust me, this is becoming my go to when I need something that looks fancy but actually requires minimal effort.

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.
