INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the biscuit layer: Lay the sponge fingers across the base of your tray. Pour cooled coffee into a squeeze bottle or use a spoon and drizzle about half evenly over the biscuits. They should be soft but not soggy. Set the tray aside.
Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add vanilla and coffee, then mix again. Pour in the cream and beat until thick and smooth.
Assemble: Spread half the filling over the soaked biscuits. Add another layer of 18 sponge fingers and drizzle with the rest of the coffee. Spread the remaining filling evenly on top and smooth it out with a spatula or spoon.
Chill: Pop the tray into the fridge while you make the whipped topping. This helps the filling start to set.
Make the whipped topping: In another bowl, beat cream cheese, condensed milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add the cold cream in two batches and whip until thick and fluffy.
Finish and serve: Spoon or pipe the topping evenly over the cheesecake. Use the back of a spoon or spatula to create soft swirls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the flavors blend. Dust with cocoa powder right before serving.
NOTES
Make this tiramisu cheesecake a day ahead so the coffee flavor develops and the creamy layers set beautifully.
Use any coffee strength you enjoy. Stronger coffee gives a bolder flavor, while regular brewed coffee keeps it mild.
Dust with cocoa powder right before serving for that classic tiramisu dessert look and rich finish.
Slice with a hot knife for clean edges or scoop to serve casually straight from the tray.
