How to make tiramisu cookies step by step

Step 1 - creaming the butter

• Beat the butter with powdered sugar until light and fluffy - I beat for about 3 minutes on the highest speed of the mixer.
  110 g butter, 150 g powdered sugar
  
• Add the egg to the butter and mix briefly on low speed.

Step 2 - adding the remaining ingredients

• Add part of the flour to the eggs and mix on low speed until just combined.
  250 g all-purpose flour
  
• Add baking powder and salt - mix briefly.
  2 teaspoons baking powder, ¼ teaspoons salt
  
• Add instant coffee powder and mix briefly.
  3 tablespoons instant coffee
  
• Add the rest of the flour and mix briefly - just until combined.
  
• Place the bowl with the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes - so that the mixture slightly firms up.

Step 3 - preparing the cookies

• Preheat the oven to 180 ℃ (conventional) or 170 ℃ (convection).
• Scoop portions of dough with a large spoon.
  
• Roll balls in your hands the size of a large walnut.
  
• Arrange the cookies spaced apart on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  
• Bake the cookies in a preheated oven for about 14 minutes.
• After baking, the cookies will still be very soft; they will start to harden slightly after cooling.

Step 4 - preparing the mascarpone cream

• Transfer mascarpone, heavy cream, and powdered sugar to a bowl.
  250 g mascarpone cheese, 80 ml heavy cream, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  
• Blend them into a thick cream.
  

Step 5 - decorating the cookies

• Apply the cream to the cookies - you can transfer it to a piping bag and cut off a corner to make the cream look nicer.
  
• Finally, sprinkle the top of the cookies with bitter cocoa.
