Notes
- Espresso works best. But if you are using instant coffee instead, mix 2 teaspoons of instant coffee with ¼ cup of hot water. Instant coffee doesn't quite replicate the taste of a good espresso, but this method would be close enough.
- Baking cocoa powder is typically unsweetened and works perfectly for this recipe to enhance the coffee and tiramisu flavour. Do not substitute with instant chocolate powder.
- Make sure to whisk the mascarpone cream properly until soft peaks form before topping it on the latte. If under-whisked, the cream layer would be too dense and sink into the latte.
- Hot espresso could also melt the cream topping layer. Let the espresso cool down for 1-2 minutes would be ideal to keep your presentation on point.
