Ingredients
For the Cream Layer:
400g full-fat Greek yogurt (for creaminess + protein)
200g light mascarpone cheese
3 tbsp maple syrup or honey (natural sweetener)
1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Coffee Layer:
10–12 ladyfingers (savoiardi)
120ml strong espresso or coffee, cooled
1 tsp coffee liqueur (optional for a grown-up twist)
For the Topping:
Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
60g chopped pistachios (for crunch + color)
Optional: Extra honey or shaved dark chocolate
Directions
1. Make the Cream Layer
Whisk together Greek yogurt, mascarpone, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. This is your healthier version of traditional tiramisu cream.
2. Soak the Ladyfingers
Quickly dip ladyfingers in cooled espresso (with liqueur if using)—just enough to soften without getting soggy.
3. Layer it Up
In 4 dessert cups, alternate soaked ladyfingers with layers of creamy yogurt filling. Repeat to form beautiful, indulgent layers.
4. Chill
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the flavors develop and layers set.
5. Garnish Before Serving
Dust with cocoa powder, sprinkle with pistachios, and top with a drizzle of honey or dark chocolate curls. So elegant, so wholesome!
