24 ladyfinger cookies (preferably whole grain or gluten-free)

1 ½ cups strong brewed coffee, cooled

1 tablespoon Earths Basket Cacoa Powder

1 cup Greek yogurt (unsweetened)

½ cup mascarpone cheese (reduced-fat)

½ cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk

2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional, for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dark chocolate shavings or cacao nibs, for garnish (optional)

STEP 1

In a shallow dish, combine the cooled brewed coffee and cacao powder. Stir until the cacao powder is dissolved.

STEP 2

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, mascarpone cheese, almond milk or coconut milk, maple syrup or honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

STEP 3

Dip each ladyfinger cookie into the coffee mixture, allowing them to soak briefly on each side. Arrange the soaked ladyfingers in a single layer in the bottom of a square or rectangular serving dish.

STEP 4

Once you have a single layer of soaked ladyfingers, spread half of the yogurt and mascarpone mixture evenly over the top.

STEP 5

Repeat the process with another layer of soaked ladyfingers, followed by the remaining yogurt and mascarpone mixture.

STEP 6

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

STEP 7

Just before serving, sprinkle the top with dark chocolate shavings or cacao nibs, if desired.

STEP 8

Cut into squares or rectangles and serve chilled.

By using Greek yogurt instead of traditional heavy cream and reducing the amount of mascarpone cheese, this Tiramisu recipe provides a healthier alternative without sacrificing flavor. The cacao powder adds a rich and chocolaty taste. Enjoy this delightful and healthier version of Tiramisu!
