Description

This Creamy Pumpkin Tiramisu is a delightful twist on the classic Italian dessert, combining the rich flavors of pumpkin and warm spices with the creamy texture of mascarpone and whipped cream. Perfect for fall celebrations or a cozy treat, this no-bake dessert layers espresso-soaked ladyfingers with a luscious pumpkin mascarpone mixture, chilled to perfection and dusted with cocoa powder.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Pumpkin Cream Mixture

  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

For the Layers

  • 1 1/4 cups espresso or strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 24 ladyfingers (savoiardi)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pumpkin Cream Mixture: In a mixing bowl, blend mascarpone cheese, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice together until the mixture is smooth and well combined, forming the flavorful base of the dessert.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, ensuring a light and airy texture to fold into the pumpkin mixture.
  3. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mascarpone mixture to create a creamy and fluffy filling without deflating the whipped cream.
  4. Dip the Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso or strong brewed coffee for about 1 second on each side to avoid sogginess while imparting rich coffee flavor.
  5. First Layer: Arrange the soaked ladyfingers evenly in an 8×8-inch or similar-sized dish, creating the first layer of the tiramisu.
  6. Add Pumpkin Cream: Spread half of the pumpkin cream mixture evenly over the layer of ladyfingers to build the creamy component of the dessert.
  7. Second Layer: Repeat the process with another layer of dipped ladyfingers followed by the remaining pumpkin cream mixture, layering the dessert beautifully.
  8. Chill: Cover the dish and chill the tiramisu in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set properly.
  9. Dust with Cocoa: Before serving, lightly dust the top of the tiramisu with unsweetened cocoa powder for a classic finishing touch.
  10. Serve: Slice the chilled tiramisu into portions and serve immediately to enjoy its creamy, festive flavors.

Notes

  • Use cooled espresso or strong coffee to prevent soggy ladyfingers and maintain texture.
  • For a stronger pumpkin flavor, increase pumpkin pie spice slightly to taste.
  • Keeping the dessert refrigerated overnight improves flavor melding and texture.
  • This dessert is best served chilled to enjoy the contrast of creamy pumpkin layers and coffee-soaked ladyfingers.
  • Can be made a day ahead for convenience and enhanced flavor.
