Instructions:
- Prepare the Chocolate Cake:
- If you haven’t already, bake your keto chocolate cake according to your recipe or package instructions. Allow it to cool completely.
- Prepare the Coffee Mixture:
- In a shallow dish, combine the Tia Maria (or coffee liqueur alternative) and cold brewed coffee. Mix well.
- Prepare the Mascarpone Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the mascarpone cheese (if using) and continue to beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Add the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract, mixing gently until everything is well incorporated.
- Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Cut the cooled keto chocolate cake into slices or cubes.
- Quickly dip each piece of cake into the coffee mixture, making sure not to soak them too long.
- Arrange the dipped cake pieces in a single layer at the bottom of a serving dish or individual glasses.
- Layer with Cream:
- Spread a layer of the mascarpone cream over the soaked cake pieces, smoothing it out evenly.
- Repeat the process with another layer of dipped cake and a layer of cream until you run out of ingredients, ending with a layer of cream on top.
- Chill:
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Dust with Cocoa Powder:
- Just before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with unsweetened cocoa powder for a classic touch.
- Serve:
- Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, decadent keto tiramisu!
Tips:
- Cake Texture: Make sure your keto chocolate cake is completely cooled before assembling to avoid sogginess.
- Coffee Liqueur: Adjust the amount of coffee liqueur based on your taste preference and desired level of coffee flavor.
- Sweetener: Taste the mascarpone cream mixture and adjust the sweetness if necessary to suit your preference.
