Cream Mixture
- 2 cups Heavy cream (cold)
- 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 16 oz Mascarpone cheese (room temperature)
Layers
- 45 Oreos (regular kind)
- 1 cup Espresso (cooled)
- 2 tbsp Cocoa powder (for dusting)
- Whip Cream: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cold heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric hand mixer to whip the mixture until soft peaks form, ensuring your cream is light and fluffy.
- Add Mascarpone: Add the room-temperature mascarpone cheese to the whipped cream. Gently mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy, being careful not to overmix to prevent curdling.
- Soak Oreos: Quickly dip each Oreo cookie into the cooled espresso for 2-3 seconds. Make sure not to soak them too long to avoid sogginess.
- Layer Oreos: Arrange a single even layer of the coffee-soaked Oreos in the bottom of a 13 by 9-inch baking dish.
- Add Cream Layer: Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture over the Oreo layer, smoothing it out evenly with an offset spatula.
- Repeat Layers: Add another layer of dipped Oreos on top of the cream, then spread the remaining mascarpone cream over this second layer, smoothing it evenly.
- Chill: Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the cookies to soften completely.
- Serve: Before serving, generously dust the top with cocoa powder, then slice and enjoy this delicious Oreo twist on tiramisu.
Notes
- Use freshly brewed espresso for the best coffee flavor, but strong brewed coffee works as a substitute.
- Ensure mascarpone cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps in the cream mixture.
- Do not soak Oreos for too long to prevent them from becoming too soggy and falling apart.
- Refrigeration time is crucial for setting the tiramisu; do not skip chilling.
- For best results, prepare this dessert a day ahead to allow flavors to develop fully.
