Dutch Home and Living Christmas Advent Calendar Day 20

Ingredients:

• 250 g speculoos cookies
• 100 g speculoos spread
• 250 g mascarpone
• 250 ml heavy cream
• 2 sachets vanilla sugar
• 75 ml espresso or strong coffee

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Espresso:
   Brew 75 ml of espresso or strong coffee and set it aside to cool.

2. Make the Cream Layer:
   In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla sugar until stiff peaks form. Add the mascarpone and gently fold until combined.

3. Assemble the Tiramisu:

   – Dip each speculoos cookie briefly into the cooled coffee and arrange a layer of cookies at the bottom of a serving dish.
   – Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the cookie layer.
   – Add another layer of coffee-dipped cookies, followed by the remaining mascarpone mixture.

4. Add the Topping:

   – Gently warm the speculoos spread in the microwave or on the stovetop until it becomes pourable. Drizzle it over the top layer of mascarpone, creating swirls or patterns as desired.

5. Chill:
   Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until ready to serve.
