Tiramisu cheesecake is a gourmet and irresistible dessert, an ideal synthesis between cheesecake, symbol of American pastry, and tiramisu, a famous dessert loved by young and old. It is actually a cold, no-bake cheesecake, which at the base, instead of cookies mixed with butter, has a layer of cookies dipped in coffee, just like in tiramisu. The cream is made up of egg yolks, mascarpone, spreadable cheese, fresh cream and jelly, for a result that perfectly matches the two traditional recipes.
For safe consumption of the tiramisu cheesecake, we have provided for the pasteurization of the 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 yolks from the supermarket (you will find them at the refrigerated counter): you can then work with 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 chips of white chocolate 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 special lunch or dinner.
