It's almost valentine's day :D
So I prepared a little treat...
Tiramisu! aka...
TERRANMISU!

Muwahahah..
INGREDIENTS
- 1.5 oz of coffee liqueur (about 1 and 1/2 shot glasses worth)
- 1/3 cup of honey (or sugar)
- 1/2 cup of powdered chocolate
- 2 cups of espresso (or coffee)
14 - 20 lady fingers (amount will depend on how large of a dish you are using; for a 10" loaf pan, I used about 14)
- 1/2 cup of mascarpone cheese
- 1 pint of heavy whipping cream
- OPTIONAL: 1 cup of white chocolate, broken into pieces for the design
PROCEDURE
Prep for this dish will take about 30 minutes. Cook time (or idle time in this case) will be about 2 hours. This will make 6 servings.
Calories per serving: ~520 calories
- Pour your whipping cream into a bowl. Using a balloon whisk, whisk the whip cream until it begins to form stiff peaks. (I suggest placing your bowl in the sink and then whisk side to side very quickly... Extreme APM is required for this step!). The cream will not thicken unless you whisk it very aggressively in a short amount of time. Ideally, this step should take you less than 5 minutes. Once done, set your whipped cream aside.
- Take your mascarpone cheese and combine it with the honey (or sugar).
- Gently fold the mascarpone cheese into your whipped cream.
- Pour your coffee liqueur into your whipped cream mixture and gently combine.
- Pour your espresso into a shallow dish.
- Dip your lady fingers into the espresso. Do not let them soak -- the cookies should be moist, not soaking wet.
- Place half of your lady fingers in your dish. Spoon some espresso over your lady fingers.
- Cover the lady fingers with half of your whipped cream mixture.
- Sprinkle powdered chocolate over the whipped cream.
- Place the rest of your lady fingers on top of the powdered chocolate. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
- Cover your dish with cellophane (cling wrap) and place in the fridge for at least two hours.
- Eat!
And ta-da, terranmisu:

DUDE this is amazing! I love how you call it a unit comp and build order XD
I'm thinking about making Pea Soup in a really, really thick bread that's used as a bowl and calling it "Spawning Pool"
Though I'm working on a good flavor balance, and what sauce to use for creep right now
Any suggestions?

Lady fingers are a type of cookie. :3
They're pretty soft and spongey, sometimes with powdered sugar on top.

Something like that!
And yes, you're 100% correct! :D Mascarpone cheese is a super creamy cheese spread. It's comparable to like cream cheese.

5 stars because I'm a terran AND Tiramisu is my favourite dessert of all time.
For zerg-themed dessert, it's clearly gotta be zergbaglione
For protoss, what about protoline? OK that one's pretty lame.

just wondering, do you make all these recipes yourself?
Most of the recipes are my creation.
I did look at a bunch of Tiramisu recipes, get the general idea of what ingredients were required, and then I start experimenting by using my own measurements and swapping out ingredients (in this case, whipped cream instead of egg whites and honey instead of sugar).
|
tiramisu without eggs is inferior i think(whites arent necessary but yolks are imo), looks good still though
