Ingredients:
For the Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee Syrup:
- 1 cup Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee, brewed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Tiramisu:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 24 to 30 ladyfinger cookies
- 1 cup Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee, brewed and cooled
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate, finely chopped

Instructions:
1. Prepare the Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee Syrup:
- In a small saucepan, combine the brewed Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee and granulated sugar.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from heat, add vanilla extract, and let it cool.
2. Make the Tiramisu Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- In another bowl, whisk together mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
3. Assemble the Tiramisu:
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the brewed Crown Sirène Dark Roast Coffee syrup and arrange them in the bottom of a serving dish to create the first layer.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Sprinkle half of the finely chopped dark chocolate over the mascarpone layer.
4. Repeat the Layers:
- Create another layer of dipped ladyfingers over the chocolate and press down slightly.
- Spread the remaining mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
- Sprinkle the rest of the chopped dark chocolate evenly.
5. Chill:
- Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
6. Serve:
- Before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Slice and serve chilled.
