This recipe looks pretty solid, I'm just confused on the espresso part of the ingredients (due to my lack of use of it. How does that even work? Is one expected to have an espresso machine in their house? I REALLY wanna make this recipe, I'm just unsure of how to go about doing it.

My tiramisu was a disaster. Maybe I did something wrong... not sure. The creamy mixture was too runny, so I added gelatin as per the recipe and got horrible lumps of gelatin in the creamy mixture. The tiramisu is almost unedible.
Anyone know how to avoid the gelatin lumps?

This recipe is excellent except that I do not want a gelatinous texture to my tiramisu. I am from NYC so I have been making this italian dessert for years and this one actually resembles the one from my grandmother. I use the Savoiardi lady fingers so they are crunchy initially and stay together so much better than any other soft one. Also, they absorb all the coffee/kahlua flavor and liquid! I think this recipe might be better with a bit of vanilla in the egg/mascarpone mousse. I loved it in general, and it IS THE REAL DEAL! No other ingredients would make authentic Italian Tiramisu and that is why I love this recipe so much! Buona Fortuna! Ciao!

That's a little scary after the recent recall.

This was OK at best. I made it for a dinner with friends. It was just not all that.
It had too much liquid. The Lady Fingers could not absorb it all. The ingredients cost over 25.00. Will never make it again.
I threw out over 1/2 of it.

It helped to read all the comments and suggestions from other more experienced cooks than I! My first attempt at making this I followed the recipe exactly. I had never used gelatin before and sure enough I ended up with the lumps, which were not very nice at all so I painstakingly sieved the whole thing until they were gone. My husband has a lot of business lunch and dinners and has tasted tiramisu many times before. He thought it was the best he had tasted.
The second time I made it I left the gelatin part out and it tasted the same to me. Not sure what it will look like tomorrow.
Both times I have ended up with a lot of the coffee and alcohol mixture left over so I must not be soaking the ladyfingers for as long as the recipe intends?
So delicious I ate far too much of it!

im not a big fan of this desert. but it is my husband favorite and i made it and now i am in love with it too. i did not use the gelatin and used vanilla wafers in place of the lady fingers and it was still just as good!
