Coffee Mascarpone Cream

I first made this utterly delicious coffee mascarpone Whipped Cream about a year ago in 2009.

I was inspired by  Iris's Tiramisu cake painting and I decided to whip it again this week.:-)

In my previous post I  shared with you the recipe for home made ladyfingers that I used to make my Tiramisu, Now it is time for the filling recipe.



Coffee Mascarpone Cream Recipe



Coffee Beans, I used columbian coffee beans/whole beans/

Whipping  cream

Mascarpone cheese

Vanilla sugar

(if you don't have vanilla sugar : use vanilla extract and granulated sugar/



For  about  2 1/2 cups of filling you need:



1 1/2 whipping cream

1 cup mascarpone cheese

coffee beans 1 tbl /for light coffee flavor/, use more coffee beans for more intense coffee flavor

Vanilla sugar 1 1/2 tbl /or 1/4tsp vanilla extract and 1 1/2 tbl sugar/



Since I can't drink much coffee my ratio heavy cream and coffee beans is :





1 1/2 cup Whipping cream : 1tbl coffee beans. If you like strong coffee flavor I suggest you use more coffee beans.



Pour whipping cream in the pot, put coffee beans in the  cream and cook on medium heat. Let simmer for about a minute. Remove from the heat and let cool. Remove beans by straining whipping cream cream.Discard coffee beans.





























Mascarpone Cheese



When I first bought Mascarpone Cheese here in USA, I couldn't believbe that this delicious cheese is sold in this super tiny container, it contains about 1 CUP of cheese. They should sell it by pint. It is that good! Don't let me start on the price,about  $4-5 per container. I guess what is good costs more..when it comes to mascarpone cheese it is actually  true as it is delicious.









 To make the Coffee Mascarpone Cream we have to add mascarpone cheese into our coffee bean infused whipping cream. I used ratio 1 1/2 cup whipping cream : 1 cup mascarpone cheese. If you prefer more mascarpone flavor go ahead use more cheese.

Using your mixer whip the cooled coffee bean infused whipping cream until soft peaks are formed. Add mascarpone cheese,vanilla sugar and whip until combined.









































And there you have it, delicious Coffee Mascarpone Cream.

I used it to make  my Strawberry Tiramisu. 

Enjoy.
