Are you tired of all the Christmas cookies? We think Santa is, too. This year, shake it up with tiramisu! This classic Italian dessert is decadent, crowd-pleasing AND can be made ahead! Plus, it’s surprisingly versatile. Make our favorite classic version from star chef Giada de Laurentis (who personally recommended this recipe to Tanji), or try one of these extra-festive holiday twists. Here, 3 tiramisu recipes that (in our opinion) are way better than cookies.
Giada’s Tiramisu
This classic, cloud-like Tiramisu from Giada de Laurentis will give you bonus points with any holiday guests you’re entertaining. It’s simple and delicious, and those shaved chocolate pieces can be replaced with white chocolate if you want to make things look a bit more like fluffy snow.
Gingerbread Tiramisu
The humble gingerbread man gets a MAJOR upgrade in this adorable seasonal tiramisu from blogger Also The Crumbs Please. This kicked-up version involves mixing eggnog into the creamy base and layering with store-bought gingerbread cookies. Also, bonus: you only need 9 ingredients to make it and 15 minutes to assemble!
Eggnog Tiramisu
If you’ve ever had an Eggnog Latte you know how great this combo is, espresso meets a custard dessert fit for the holidays! This recipe from Kitchen Gidget can be made in single servings like a cup of eggnog or can replace Santa’s cup of milk *and* cookies this holiday season.
