How to make Tiramisu Tart
Coffee Sablée Dough
- Step 1
Cream the butter with the sugar and vanilla using a mixer for 5 minutes. Add the egg yolks along with the coffee hydrated with water, and using a spatula, incorporate the sifted flour and salt. Mix without kneading.
- Step 2
Let it rest in the refrigerator for 2 to 5 hours.
- Step 3
Roll out the dough and line 8 individual tart pans with a diameter of 8 cm.
- Step 4
Bake in the oven using the blind baking technique at 160 degrees Celsius until evenly golden.
Coffee Gel
- Step 1
Bring the water and sugar to a boil until dissolved, then add the coffee and the agar-agar hydrated with water. Boil for 4 minutes, then add the marsala wine.
Mascarpone Cream
- Step 1
Heat the milk just before it reaches a boil, pour it over the finely chopped chocolate, and use an immersion blender to emulsify well. Add the hydrated and activated gelatin.
- Step 2
Allow it to cool to room temperature, then mix in the mascarpone cheese until well combined.
Final Assembly
- Step 1
Melt the cocoa butter and brush the inside of the cooled tart shells. Chill for a few minutes in the refrigerator to allow the butter to crystallize, then fill with the coffee gel to a height of 2 to 3 mm.
- Step 2
Chill to allow it to set.
- Step 3
Then fill to the top with the mascarpone cream. Chill for 2 to 4 hours.
