How long does it take for tiramisu to set?
For the best results, tiramisu needs at least 6 hours in the fridge before serving. This time allows the ladyfingers a chance to soak up flavor and moisture from the coffee, wine and filling. You can make tiramisu 1 to 2 days in advance, just keep it refrigerated until you are ready to serve.
Does tiramisu contain alcohol?
Traditional recipes for tiramisu contain two alcohols, Marsala wine and rum. There’s also a liberal dose of caffeine in the form of coffee and espresso, but let’s stick to one vice at a time. Tiramisu is also not cooked, which means that all the alcohol used in its making is still potent.
What can I use in tiramisu instead of Marsala?
Substitutes for Marsala Wine: We love Marsala in tiramisu — it cuts the creaminess of the filling. For something a little different, try substituting dark rum, brandy or coffee flavored liqueur. Since Marsala is less potent than something like rum, we suggest using about half the amount.
