Instructions

  • Pour in the cream, sugar, vanilla essence and speculoos cookie butter into a large mixing bowl and beat until thick.
    600 ml thickened cream / heavy cream, ¼ cup sugar, 1 tsp vanilla essence, 2 tbsp speculoos cookie butter
  • Place the black coffee in a wide dish or small mixing bowl for dipping, then get out the speculoos cookies, sponge fingers, whipped cream and a long rectangle glass dish, ready to assemble your tiramisu.
    200 g speculoos cookies, 1 1/2 cups black coffee, 100-150 g sponge fingers
  • The layering will be as follows:
    Speculoos cookies, cream, sponge fingers, cream, speculoos cookies, cream, sponge fingers, cream, optional garnishes.
  • Dip the speculoos cookies one by one into the coffee quickly, making sure both sides are coated, and layer on the bottom of your glass dish. Top with a couple of spoonfuls of whipped cream and smooth with the back of the spoon until everything is covered.
  • Next, dip the sponge fingers into the coffee and layer into the dish. Cover with another layer of whipped cream.
  • Depending on the depth of your dish, repeat the steps with another layer of speculoos biscuits and sponge fingers as many times as you can before adding a final layer of cream.
  • Pop in the fridge and allow to set for a minimum of 1 hour or overnight.
  • Before serving, sprinkle with optional cocoa powder, crushed speculoos biscuits and speculoos cookie butter.
    1/2 tbsp cocoa powder, 3 speculoos cookies, 1 tbsp speculoos cookie butter

Notes

  • Setting - Place the finished speculoos tiramisu in the fridge to set for a minimum of one hour before serving. 
  • Storage - This dessert is best enjoyed within 24-48 hours. Leftovers will last for 2-3 days in an airtight container in the fridge. It will become soggier over time (but still taste great!).
  • Coffee - We recommend freshly brewed espresso coffee. For instant coffee, add an extra tsp or two of powdered coffee than you would normally for extra punch. 
  • Cream - Heavy / thickened cream is perfect. Avoid pouring cream as it won’t whip up into a thick and fluffy cream. 
  • Biscoff Spread - Use store bought or make your own speculoos spread.
  • Vanilla Essence - Sub with a hazelnut or coffee liqueur for even more flavour!
