Tiramisu Icebox Cake

Recipe by Claire Saffitz x Dessert Person

A light, airy, coffee‑flavored tiramisu turned into an easy no‑bake icebox cake. Layers of quick‑soaked ladyfingers are sandwiched with a silky mascarpone‑egg yolk filling, chilled overnight and finished with a cloud of whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa. Perfect for coffee lovers who want a sophisticated‑looking dessert with minimal effort.
