Easy Puff Pastry Tiramisu is one of the desserts I chose this year for my birthday cake! I love Tiramisu, maybe not as much as the Italian but pretty darn close.

Italian Chocolate Pastry Cream Tiramisu
I had an extra package of puff pastry in the fridge and decided that I would make everyone happy and make something Tiramisu.
I also had some Lady Fingers left over from making my No Bake Tiramisu Truffles so I dipped them in coffee and that became my second level.
With of course that creamy mascarpone filling. I make my tiramisu filling the traditional Italian way and yes I add an egg.
You could either leave out the egg or buy a pasteurized egg and go Italian!
Puff Pastry Tiramisu
And of course you can’t leave out the sprinkle of unsweetened cocoa on top.
And as I mentioned this Easy Puff Pastry Tiramisu was one of the recipes I made for my day, and the other one was a dessert I am featuring in my upcoming Book,
which will be released in the Fall of 2018. It was super yummy too!
With all the Christmas preparations, the turkey (or whatever you serve), the side dishes, the mashed potatoes and veggies, it’s nice to have a No Bake Tiramisu made with pre made puff pastry and lady fingers. Enjoy!
Easy Puff Pastry Tiramisu
Ingredients
- 1 puff pastry roll
- 10-15 lady fingers (depending on the size of your puff pastry)
- 1/2 cup strong coffee
TIRAMISU FILLING
- 1 3/4 cups mascarpone (remove 30 minutes before from the refrigerator)
- 1 3/4 cups cream whole, whipping or heavy cream at least 30% fat content
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- cocoa powder for sprinkling
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F (190C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry and lightly roll to even out the pastry, then cut the sheet in two equal parts, place on prepared cookie sheet and prick very well all four sheets. Brush with milk and sprinkle with icing sugar. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. (if pastry is very puffy lightly flatten with a clean towel)
- While puff pastry is cooling, in a large bowl beat together until very thick the mascarpone, cream and sugar (I always add a pasteurized egg as per the Italian way but you can leave it out if you want).
PUTTING IT TOGETHER
- On a large square plate or board place one puff pastry square, add one third of the cream, top with a layer of coffee dipped Lady Fingers (place coffee in a large bowl and dip lady fingers one at a time).
- Top with another third of the cream on top place remaining puff pastry square and remaining cream. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours or even over night. Sprinkle with cocoa before serving. Enjoy!
Plovan says
When you say whole cream and whipping cream do you mean heavy cream and whip cream? …
Rosemary says
Hi Plovan, when I say cream I mean heavy cream, which is also known as whipping cream or whole cream, it should have at least 30% fat content. Hope that helps. Take care.
Deborah says
I’m going to try this recipe for my mother in laws birthday. Just had a question about the egg. Traditionally the egg white is beaten separately from the yolk. In this recipe are you mixing in the whole egg into the filling and I wonder does the egg give more lightness to marscapone filling?
Rosemary says
Hi Deborah, yes a whole egg is beaten in with the mascarpone. It actually gives it more taste. I always make Tiramisu with a raw egg. Let me know how it turns out. And Happy Birthday to your MIL.
Deborah says
Thank you for replying so fast. Can,t wait to try this recipe. Looks delicious! My mother in law is diabetic, so this recipe is perfect. Thanks again.
Rosemary says
Hi Deborah, you’re welcome, let me know how it goes.

I’ve made this recipe a couple of times. One of my favourite ways to make Tiramisu look fancy and super delicious too!

Linda S Haworth says
tell us the best lady fingers to use
Rosemary says
Hi Linda, I found these Italian ones (which I have used and I like them) on Amazon, maybe you could also find them in a store. They are Balocco Savoiardi Ladyfingers, hope that helps.
Denise says
This looks wonderful and I plan to make later this month. Can you please clarify the number of puff pastry sheets. It appears to be one sheet cut in half for a total of 2 pastry layers. However directions for baking pastry states “prick very well all four sheets”.
Rosemary says
Hi Denise, yes it is 2 layers of puff pastry and 1 layer of lady fingers. Thanks recipe has been corrected. Let me know how it goes.
