Tiramisu cheesecake is a decadent dessert that combines the flavors of tiramisu and cheesecake. The origins of this delicious dessert can be traced back to Italy, where both tiramisu and cheesecake are beloved desserts in their own right.

Tiramisu, which means “pick me up” in Italian, is a classic dessert made with layers of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and a creamy mixture of mascarpone cheese, eggs, and sugar. It is believed to have originated in the Veneto region of Italy in the 1960s.

Cheesecake, on the other hand, has a longer history, with evidence of its existence dating back to ancient Greece. However, it wasn’t until the 19th century that cheesecake as we know it today became popular in America.

The fusion of these two classic desserts into tiramisu cheesecake is a relatively recent development.

How to make Healthy tiramisu

Base layer

1. Measure and grind almonds if necessary. Prepare cake tin by covering in with parchment paper.
2. Chop dates into small pieces. Brew a coffee. Melt coconut oil in case it’s not already liquid. Pour all of these ingredients into a medium size mixing bowl and blend them together until it’s mixed properly.
3. Put bottom layer into the cake tin. Make sure it’s evenly spread.

Chocolate layer

1. 
   

   

   Melt chocolate. Once its melted take it off heat and let it cool off but we still need it to be runny.
   
   
2. Meanwhile crack and separate eggs. Beat yolk until light yellow.
3. Fold in mascarpone and keep beating it. The cream needs to have smooth consistency. When the chocolate is not hot to the touch we can mix it into the mascarpone-yolk cream.
4. 
   
   Beat egg whites until hard peeks form.

   Fold egg whites into the chocolate mixture.
   
   
6. Pour chocolate cream into the cake tin and spread it evenly.

Top layer

1. It’s basically repeating the method we used with the chocolate layer, but instead of chocolate, put the vanilla extract and optionally the agave syrup or other sweetener into the mascarpone mixture. Separate eggs.
2. Beat egg whites until hard peaks form.
3. Whisk yolk with vanilla extract and optional sweetener until it has a light yellow color.
4. Mix mascarpone with the yolk to get a smooth cream.
5. Fold in the egg white carefully. And that’s it.
6. Spread top layer onto the chocolate layer.
7. Sprinkle unsweetened cocoa powder on top.
8. Tiramisu is ready to put into the fridge for a couple of hours. Serve it straight out of the fridge.
