To make Pumpkin Spice Latte Tiramisu, you will need: - 1 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled) - 1 cup pumpkin puree - 1 cup mascarpone cheese - 1 cup heavy cream - ½ cup powdered sugar - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice blend - 24 ladyfinger cookies - Cocoa powder for dusting - Dark chocolate shavings for garnish You can swap some ingredients if needed. For coffee, use strong tea or a coffee substitute. If you can’t find mascarpone, cream cheese works well. For a lighter option, use low-fat cream instead of heavy cream. If you want a sweeter dessert, add more powdered sugar. You can use any spice blend that fits your taste if you can’t find pumpkin spice. Using fresh and high-quality ingredients makes a big difference. Fresh pumpkin puree adds a rich flavor. Good coffee enhances the overall taste. Mascarpone cheese provides that creamy texture we love in tiramisu. Each ingredient builds layers of flavor, so choose wisely. Quality ingredients mean a more delicious and satisfying dessert. Start by mixing the pumpkin puree, mascarpone cheese, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and pumpkin spice blend in a bowl. Use an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat until the mix is smooth and creamy. This step gives the filling a rich flavor. Set it aside while you prepare the cream. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. This means it holds its shape well. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture. Use a spatula and make sure not to deflate the cream. This keeps your filling light and airy. Grab a 9x9-inch serving dish. Dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee for just a few seconds. Don't soak them too long, or they will get too soggy. Lay the dipped ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of the dish. Spread half of the pumpkin filling over the ladyfingers. Smooth it out evenly. Repeat this with another layer of dipped ladyfingers. Finally, top with the rest of the pumpkin filling. Smooth the top with a spatula. Cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best taste. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder and add dark chocolate shavings for a nice touch. To get a smooth texture, mix the pumpkin puree and mascarpone well. Use an electric mixer to blend these ingredients until they are creamy. This step helps the flavors come together nicely. When you whip the cream, make sure to get stiff peaks. This means the cream holds its shape well. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mix. This keeps your filling light and airy. One common mistake is soaking the ladyfingers too long in coffee. If you dip them for too long, they can become soggy. Aim for just a few seconds in the coffee. Another mistake is skipping the chilling time. Let the tiramisu chill for at least four hours. Overnight chilling enhances the flavors. Don’t forget to smooth the top layer before chilling. This gives a nice finish when you serve it. For a special touch, serve your tiramisu in individual cups or bowls. This makes it easy to share. You can add an extra sprinkle of pumpkin spice on top for flair. Dust the top with cocoa powder just before serving. Dark chocolate shavings add a nice visual contrast and taste. Use a clean spatula to smooth out the layers for a neat look. {{image_2}} You can change the flavor of your tiramisu easily. Try using chocolate or caramel instead of pumpkin. For a fruity twist, use berry puree like strawberries or raspberries. Each new flavor can bring a fresh taste to this classic dessert. Do not be afraid to get creative with your ingredients. If you need a gluten-free version, swap ladyfinger cookies with gluten-free sponge cake. You can also use gluten-free ladyfingers, which are now widely available. Just check the label to ensure they are gluten-free. This way, everyone can enjoy this tasty treat without worry. To make this dessert vegan, use dairy-free options. Replace mascarpone cheese with a mix of soaked cashews and coconut cream. For heavy cream, use coconut whipped cream. Substitute powdered sugar with a vegan-friendly sweetener. These changes will keep the spirit of the dish while making it plant-based. Enjoy this version with the same rich flavors. To keep your pumpkin spice latte tiramisu tasty, store it in the fridge. Use an airtight container to prevent drying. If you use plastic wrap, press it gently on the surface. This keeps the tiramisu from absorbing other flavors in the fridge. Enjoy your leftovers within three days for the best taste. You can freeze tiramisu, but it may change in texture. To freeze, cut the tiramisu into portions. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap, then place it in a freezer bag. Remove as much air as you can from the bag. This helps prevent freezer burn. You can freeze it for up to one month. Thaw it in the fridge before you eat it. The shelf life of pumpkin spice latte tiramisu is about three days in the fridge. After that, the texture may not be as good. If you notice any change in smell or color, it’s better to toss it. Always check for freshness before serving. Keeping it stored correctly ensures you enjoy every delicious layer. Yes, you can make Pumpkin Spice Latte Tiramisu ahead of time. This dessert actually tastes better after it sits. I recommend making it a day before. This gives the flavors time to blend. Just cover it well and chill it in the fridge. If you want to skip the coffee, you can use milk or almond milk. Brew a strong tea, like chai, for a different flavor. Just dip the ladyfingers in your chosen liquid for a few seconds. The rest of the recipe stays the same and still tastes great! Yes, you can use store-bought ingredients for this recipe.
