Critical Success Points

  • Coffee must be brewed and cooled before mixing with rum.
  • Egg‑yolk mixture must reach 160°F without boiling.
  • Ladyfingers should only be dipped for 2 seconds to avoid sogginess.
  • Do not over‑whip the heavy cream; stop at soft peaks.
  • Chill the assembled tiramisu overnight for proper set.

Safety Warnings

  • The custard mixture reaches 160°F; handle with care to avoid burns.
  • Raw eggs are cooked in the double boiler; ensure temperature is reached for safety.
