Instructions
Lady Fingers
  1. Prepare the Vanilla Spiced Sugar Cookies. Following this recipe: https://paleobythepenny.com/recipe/vanilla-spiced-sugar-cookies/
  2. To replicate traditional “lady fingers” slice cookie dough into rectangle shapes to put on the cookie sheet.
  3. Allow cookies to cool.
Coffee Soak:
  1. Heat up the water so it is HOT! Add in instant coffee packets. (I use decaf so I can serve this to my kiddos.) If you don’t have instant coffee prepare a super dark cup of coffee.
  2. Add vanilla and maple syrup into the coffee.
  3. Give it a good stir. Then Dip the lady fingers into the coffee for about 20 seconds each.
  4. Place the lady fingers on an even layer into your serving dish.
“Mascarpone” Cream
  1. In a large bowl add in coconut cream. In a can of coconut milk, you will have a liquid and cream. Scoop out only the CREAM!
  2. Whisk the coconut cream until it is fluffy and has airy peeks.
  3. In a food processor, add in soaked cashews, coconut oil, honey, and vanilla. Process on high until smooth. (This may take several minutes!)
  4. Once the coconut cream is ready, fold in the cashew mixture from the food processor.
Putting the Tiramisu Together:
  1. Add about 1/3 of the “Mascarapone” Cream onto the dish of lady fingers. Smooth it out for a nice, even layer.
  2. Dip the remaining lady fingers for 20 seconds into the coffee soak. Place the lady fingers on top of the “Mascarpone” Cream creating one more even layer.
  3. Use the remaining “Mascarpone” Cream to give the Tiramisu its final layer. Even out the cream so it is as even as possible.
  4. Grate a compliant chocolate bar into a measuring cup until you get 3/4 of a cup.
  5. Sift cocoa powder evenly on top of the Tiramisu.
  6. Sprinkle grated chocolate on top of the cocoa powder.
  7. Allow to set in the refrigerator overnight or at least 5 hours.
Recipe Notes

This is one recipe you need to prepare ahead of time.

1. The cashews will need to soak in water overnight. Simply pour cashews into a bowl. Fill the bowl with water until it covers the cashews. Cover, and let the cashews soak overnight or 6 hours. 

2. The coconut cream needs to be COLD in order to fully whip properly. I recommend keeping it in the fridge overnight or at least 6 hours. 

2. The Tiramisu needs time to set and leaving it in the fridge overnight is best, otherwise, prepare it in the morning and allow it to set for at least 5 hours in the fridge.
