This decadent desert is Ale Asylum’s take on tiramisu using their own Contorter Porter beer.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Mascarpone cheese
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 48 ladyfinger cookies
  • 2 cups Ale Asylum Contorter Porter
  • 1 cup cocoa powder

Directions

  1. Whip 3/4 cup heavy cream. Set aside.
  2. In a separate, larger bowl, using a hand mixer, whip mascarpone, remaining heavy cream, sugar, egg and vanilla. Fold in whipped cream from first step and set aside.
  3. Pour Contorter Porter into a separate bowl. Dip individual ladyfingers very quickly into dish. Be careful not to make them too soggy or they will fall apart. Place 2 to 3 ladyfingers in the bottom of a small rocks glass.
  4. Carefully spread a 1/2-inch layer of the mascarpone mixture on top of the soaked ladyfingers and sprinkle with a small dusting of cocoa powder. Repeat with another ladyfinger layer, and top with another 1/2-inch later of the mascarpone mixture and cocoa powder. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours.
  5. Makes about 6 individual portions, or follow the steps above using an 8 x 8 baking dish.
