Recipes
Tiramisu Souffle Pancakes
Ingredients
Tiramisu Cream
- 120 g (1/2 cup) Mascarpone cheese
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) whipping cream
- 13 g (1 tbsp) sugar
Coffee Sauce (for 3-4 people)
- 240 ml (1 cup) strong coffee
- 50 g (1/4 cup) sugar
- 2-4 g (1-2 tsp) corn starch
Japanese Souffle Pancakes
- 2 eggs
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) milk
- 24 g (3 tbsp) all-purpose flour
- 1 g (1/4 tsp) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 26 g (2 tbsp) sugar
- unsweetened cocoa powder for topping
Instructions
Tiramisu Cream
-
Put the mascarpone cheese into a big bowl and add the sugar, mix to combine.
-
In another bowl, whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form then add to the cheese mixture. Mix until just to combine. If you prefer a runnier cream, whip the whipped cream more loosely before adding the cheese. Keep in the fridge before using.
Coffee Sauce
-
Pour the strong coffee into a pot along with a quarter cup of sugar, then add one to two teaspoons of cornstarch. The reason for adding cornstarch is to thicken the sauce. I usually add two teaspoons, but you can reduce or increase it to your liking.
-
Heat until it comes to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once it comes to boil and the sugar is dissolved, remove from the heat and let it cool. If you have coffee liqueur, you can add a little after the sauce has cooled down. It’s best not to add while it’s hot because the aroma will diminish.

Helpful Tips
You can also make the cream and the sauce the day before. I personally have a couple bites without the sauce first and then pour some on to savor the combination of the creamy subtly sweet mascarpone cheese and the intense bitter coffee sauce:)
