Frozen tiramisu with espresso
SERVES 8-10 PREP AND COOK TIME 30 MINUTES (+ FREEZING TIME)
¾ cup (180ml) strong espresso coffee (4-5 short blacks)
½ cup (125ml) coffee liqueur (Kahlua)
1¼ cup (300ml) thickened cream
1½ cup (240g) pure icing sugar, sifted
250g mascarpone
18 thin (160g) sponge finger biscuits (savoiardi)
1 tablespoon cocoa powder, to serve
HAZELNUT AND COFFEE PRALINE
⅔ cup (50g) hazelnuts, toasted, skins removed
1 tablespoons whole coffee beans
1 cup (220g) caster sugar
1 Line an 11cm x 21cm loaf pan (base measurement) with two strips of baking paper to cover base and extend 5cm over all sides.
Lightly oil a small oven tray. Arrange hazelnuts and coffee beans over centre of the tray. Place the cup (80ml) water in a small saucepan and stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Brush down the inside of the saucepan with a pastry brush dipped in water to dissolve all the sugar crystals. Bring to the boil, without stirring; boil, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until it turns a rich toffee colour. Quickly pour toffee over the hazelnuts. Tilt the tray a few times to ensure it spreads evenly. Cool.
