When I host parties, I want to serve my guests something innovative, especially when it comes to desserts. 
One of my best finds is Boozy Tiramisu Cups. Here's the recipe in case you want to try them:
Conclusion: This twist on the classic Italian dessert incorporates coffee liqueur and rum to elevate the flavors, making it fun for grown-ups.



Ingredients:
- For the Coffee Mixture:
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled)
- 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
- 2 tablespoons dark rum (optional, for extra depth)
- For the Mascarpone Cream:
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (optional, for flavor boost)
- For Assembly:
- 1 package of ladyfingers (about 24)
- Cocoa powder (for dusting)
- Dark chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
- Ground cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Coffee Mixture:- In a shallow bowl, combine the brewed coffee, coffee liqueur, and dark rum (if using). Stir well to combine. Set aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined, being careful not to deflate the cream. If you want an extra boozy kick, stir in a tablespoon of coffee liqueur.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture, making sure not to soak them for too long (just a quick dip to avoid sogginess).
- Layer the soaked ladyfingers at the bottom of individual serving cups (such as small glass jars or dessert glasses).
- Spoon a layer of mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon.
- Repeat the layers (ladyfingers, cream) until you fill the cups, finishing with a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
- Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld together.
- Before serving, dust the top of each tiramisu cup with cocoa powder and garnish with dark chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for an extra touch of elegance.
Why It’s Perfect for an Adult Party:
- Boozy Twist: The coffee liqueur and rum add an adult flair to this classic dessert, making it perfect for a sophisticated crowd.
- Individual Portions: Serving in individual cups or jars makes it easy for guests to grab a portion, and the presentation is elegant.
- Decadent & Indulgent: The rich mascarpone cream paired with coffee-soaked ladyfingers is a luxurious dessert that will impress your guests.
Conclusion: This twist on the classic Italian dessert incorporates coffee liqueur and rum to elevate the flavors, making it fun for grown-ups.
