Prep Time
not including baking cake and chilling: 20 minutes

I partnered with Noah in the Test Kitchen to make these Tiramisu in Coupe Glasses! I love tiramisu and since Noah is great with cocktails, I thought it would be a fun collaboration! You get a coffee soaked vanilla cake, a light and creamy filling, and then that classic cocoa powder finish on top. The great thing about these is you can make them with a store bought cake, a box cake, or do a quick sheet cake. They come together fast and are great for parties!

For the cake:

We used a classic white sheet cake, but get creative and choose your own cake flavor.




Ingredients

For the cream filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, cold
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For the soak

  • 1 cup black coffee liqueur (or black coffee/espresso)

For the topping

  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder

Directions

  • Step 1

    Using the coupe glass, cut out 5 pieces of the cake until there are only scraps remaining.


  • Step 2

    Carefully cut the top off the cake pieces and then cut the cake in half.


  • Step 3

    Layer the coupe glasses starting with a piece of cake.


  • Step 4

    With a pastry brush, brush the soak on top of the cake. I added about 2 tablespoons of soak here.


  • Step 5

    With a spoon, dollop about 2 tablespoons of cream on top of the soaked cake layer.

  • Step 6

    Repeat the steps again with a piece of cake and the soak.


  • Step 7

    Add extra cream to the top layer of the soaked cake and using the back of a knife, remove excess cream to have a clean layer that reaches the lip of the coupe glass.


  • Step 8

    Continue this process until you’ve filled each coupe glass.


  • Step 9

    Let the cakes chill in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight. The longer you do this, the more the soak will moisten the cake!


  • Step 10

    Remove the glasses from the fridge and dust cocoa powder on top.


  • Step 11

    Enjoy!
