Ingredients

• 6 large egg yolks
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 2/3 cup whole milk
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2 8 ounce containers of mascarpone cheese, softened(OR cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, cream cheese, full fat sour cream)
  
• 2/3 cup strong coffee at room temperature
• 4 tbsp rum I used dark
• 2 3 ounce packages lady fingers
• 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting
• For serving: chocolate curls or chocolate syrup optional                                                  
  

  egg yolk substitute- Use ¼ cup of unsweetened applesauce to replace one egg yolk. Banana: Half of a mashed banana can substitute for an egg yolk, particularly in sweet baked goods, while also imparting a mild banana flavor. Avocado: Half of a mashed avocado offers fat similar to an egg yolk, suitable for dense baked goods like brownies.

  the other substitutes are- Silken tofu,Flax or chia seeds,Soda water,Vinegar and baking soda.

  Instructions

  • Whisk sugar and egg yolks together in a medium saucepan until incorporated. Whisk in milk. Place on the gas over medium heat, and bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Boil for one minute, continuing to stir. Remove from the heat, cool for 10 minutes. The custard will be thick and will coat the back of a spoon.
  • While the mixture cools, whip your cream and vanilla together until stiff peaks form.
  • Place the whipped cream and the custard in the refrigerator. Cover the custard with plastic wrap, letting the wrap rest on top of the custard. Chill in the fridge for at least one hour. Longer if it's not cold yet.
  • Mix coffee and rum together. Set aside.
  • After the custard is cooled, whisk in mascarpone cheese just until it's smooth. Set aside. *mixture should NOT be runny.
  • Fill the bottom of either an 8x8 or a 9x9 baking dish with a single layer of the ladyfingers.
  • Drizzle them with 1/2 of the coffee/rum mixture. Give your dish a swirl to ensure that the ladyfingers are evenly coated but not soggy.
  • In a separate shallow dish, repeat the same method with the ladyfingers and coffee/rum mixture to soak the other half of the ladyfingers.
  • To assemble the tiramisu, using an offset spatula, layer half of the custard mixture over the ladyfingers in the baking dish, making sure the custard gets in between the ladyfingers. Next, spread half of the whipped cream over the top of the custard. Then, carefully top with the other half of the ladyfingers. Finish with another layer of custard and finally the remaining whipped cream.
  • Cover and  refrigerate for about 5-6 hours.
  • To serve, top with a dusting of unsweetened cocoa.
  • Top with chocolate curls or chocolate syrup if desired.
