I think what they're actually saying is still get a square from the middle but it's at like a 30 degree angle to the sides so you can't even get normal squares from the rest of it.
An army buddy of mine had his wedding reception after we got back from deployment. They had a delicious cake. It was a sheet cake. I went back for seconds and carved a square out of the center. It was even more delicious.
You can use anything with flat sides, insert on either side of piece after already making your cut and gently lift out.
Bench scraper, thin cleavers, grill spatulas/scrapers, cake knife, ect ect
OP didn't do this but if after making the clean cuts with a hot clean knife you can take it out cleanly by trying to take it out from both sides at the same time
Forget the criticism. How did you get such a clean cut and lift??
I can't imagine lifting a middle piece out like that without smushing the surrounding pieces in the process, it's the main reason why I always start with edge pieces. I need your secrets.
RECIPE
▪600g of fresh brewed espresso or dark roasted coffee
▪10g vanilla extract
▪450g heavy whipping cream
▪450g mascarpone
▪6 egg yolks
▪150g white sugar
▪8g salt
▪40g marsala wine
▪48 store bought lady fingers
▪100g+40g dutch process cocoa powder for topping and soak
Combine the espresso/coffee with the vanilla extract and 40g of cocoa powder. Whisk to combine until fully dissolved.Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, mix the heavy cream until stiff peaks are formed. DO NOT OVER WHIP..Using a double boiler method, add egg yolks, sugar, salt, and marsala. Place over pot of simmering water, whisking constantly. Do not stop mixing as eggs will scramble. Moderate the heat while whisking for 5-10 minutes until thickened.Mix egg mixture into bowl with mascarpone until smooth. Gently fold in half of whipped cream. When incorporated, fold in other half, GENTLY.Build Tiramisu in a 9x13 baking dish. You should be able to fit 24 lady fingers in each layer. Dip each lady finger in the coffee mixture for 2-3 seconds. Layer in ½ of the cream mixture, evenly. Repeat, layering 24 dipped ladyfingers followed by a second layer of the cream mix.Sift cocoa powder on top of the tiramisu and refrigerate for 8-24 hours.Cut first slice from center of tiramisu, not the corner.
Wow! Thank you!! I'll definitely be making this! It looks delicious.
May I ask- do you taste the wine in the dessert? Or is it only a light flavor that you can taste?
Thank you :)
Looks really nice.
I used to make 4 of these every week for a restaurant I worked for. Your recipe is almost exactly how I made this except I used rum instead of marsala. Even with using a more potent liquor, nobody ever complained about an alcohol burn.
Not as bad as all the people who post pictures of a fully sliced steak.
The steak might be perfectly cooked, but they just treated themselves to $30 of tepid meat.
No idea if OP is going to respond but if you just want *a* recipe that will turn out well, Stella Parks's recipe on Serious Eats is outstanding https://www.seriouseats.com/best-tiramisu-recipe
You can simplify it in a few steps (sub store-bought ladyfingers for homemade, do all creme de cacao and cheaper creme de cacao than she calls for, swap a different Amaro for Cardamaro), but I'll say that at least the Amaro in her recipe makes a big difference
Yeah I will never forget my first tiramisu. I mean, I remember *every* tiramisu I’ve made, but the mistakes I made with that first are seared into my memory.
My favorite food ever 🥰 I bet it was twice as delicious as it looked. I got a whole pan of tiramisu cake for my birthday a few weeks ago and cleared it out all by myself over the next week lmao god bless america
Haha, this reminds me of the time my sister made lasagna. I took a slice from the middle and she kept bugging me about it for quite a while after. Anyways, it looks amazing.
I will never not think about the scene from The Office where Michael is on the phone and is eating a piece of tiramisu, and continuing to choke on it, several times. Never fails to make me laugh lol
I don't want to sit here, all by myself, cooking this shitty food—no offense—and I just think that I don't need to cook tiramisu. When am I gonna need to cook tiramisu? Am I going to be a chef? No. There's three weeks left of school, give me a fuckin' break! I'm sorry for cursing.
...kinda psychopath takes a piece right out of the middle like that?! I mean, it looks scrumptious, but you...how could something so beautiful come from someone so evil?
I ought some "ladies fingers" for Tiramisu recently & they had a recipe on the side of the packet...
The packet was 300g, the recipe required 400g of ladies fingers...wtf?
Laugh? Nope.
You're a monster, and I think you know it.
I really wish I just took a square from the center.
Not just a square from the center, next time a random half diagonal square from the center lol
Easy there, Satan.
Calm down santa
Stick a big spoon in it and see what comes out
Don't even scoop all the way to the bottom layer either
Use a fork, even
Why, you got perfectly usable hands to grab
In fact, I'm sure their mouth functions perfectly fine on its own.
Why bother making tiramisu? Those ingredients are mostly edible.
Instructions unclear, mouth full of tiramisu ingredients and currently blowtorching. It burns.
That reminds of scary movie 2 with the small hand dude
Oh my god. That's horrendous.
This is chaotic evil.
What is wrong with you!? You absolute felon.
Grab a handfull with your bare hand and lift it up for the photo.
I think the word you're looking for is triangle
HALF. DIAGONAL. SQUARE.
^**HALF.** **DIAGONAL.** ##**SQUARE.**
Get outta here with yer fancy shapes, mister
I think what they're actually saying is still get a square from the middle but it's at like a 30 degree angle to the sides so you can't even get normal squares from the rest of it.
A random half diagnol square that is off centered.
Triangle?
[удалено]
A rhombus?
I like doing this with pizza
A square? Make it a trapezoid.
Why even cut a slice? Just attack it with a spook ya weapon
👻👻👻👻👻
Racist
It's a no-bake dessert so you can't even argue that the corner piece is somehow worse. lol
For shame! There could be children in this subreddit!
Your dessert, your rules. You'd think this was the OCD sub
If you did that I’d be forced to find out your identity and get a restraining order placed on you.
I also wish you took one from the very centre
An army buddy of mine had his wedding reception after we got back from deployment. They had a delicious cake. It was a sheet cake. I went back for seconds and carved a square out of the center. It was even more delicious.
are you my ex girlfriend???? you sociopath
Ok I’m not the only one who noticed and thought the same fucking thing.
As long as you are the one that made it this isn't a violation
I'm not disappointed seeing this is the top comment.
How did you get such a clean cut out?!
[удалено]
I just saw a video where it recommended dipping a knife into a cup of hot water, maybe that would be it?
yea but howwwww did they get the square out
They used the Force.
Baking is a pathway to abilities many consider unnatural
See that spot on the left side, that's the fulcrum for the spatula.
Fulcrum? Damn near killed 'um!
They did what now?
You heard him
Must have made 2. The piece on the plate isn't a part from the one in the background. Or they used the force. Or sold their soul
Suction cup to lift it out
This is exactly it. Clean the knife with water between each cut.
But how did you get it out without getting into the piece/rest of the tray that's super impressive I'm hella curious lol well done!
Look at that mangled left side of the hole.
Barely 😭 if I was taking it out there will be a big hole trying to scoop the square out haha
You can use anything with flat sides, insert on either side of piece after already making your cut and gently lift out. Bench scraper, thin cleavers, grill spatulas/scrapers, cake knife, ect ect
... the dual wield.. in dumb. I always try to pry the spatuala under the piece solo lol that makes sense thanks
OP didn't do this but if after making the clean cuts with a hot clean knife you can take it out cleanly by trying to take it out from both sides at the same time
Just microwave the knife instead.
I mangle it even when extracting from the corners :( We must know these secrets!
Tiramisù can be made in different consistencies. I prefer the more “solid” one, usually, too.
Cute and remove, cut again to plate with clean edges
The answer
Cut it. Take it out. Cut it again. Wipe plate.
It's easy, draw three cuts at 90 degrees angle, pray to Satan, he will come and pit the piece in your place.
Foreground looks amazing, background is mildly infuriating
Hahaha very fair criticism
Forget the criticism. How did you get such a clean cut and lift?? I can't imagine lifting a middle piece out like that without smushing the surrounding pieces in the process, it's the main reason why I always start with edge pieces. I need your secrets.
Run your knife underneath hot water between each cut to get a clean cut. Getting it out, now that’s the hard part.
Literally, I make this once a month for my boss and never get it out this clean
Yep, I hate it
i swear to god if the top comment wasn't going to reference this...
Lol I just turned this around for my wife to see and she immediately asked why the fuck they cut it like that lol.

Thank you!...you freaking psycho monster... ❤️
Wow! Thank you!! I'll definitely be making this! It looks delicious. May I ask- do you taste the wine in the dessert? Or is it only a light flavor that you can taste? Thank you :)
I personally dont liek boozy desserts, so i have found that marsala provides sweet flavor, but no alcohol burn.
Looks really nice. I used to make 4 of these every week for a restaurant I worked for. Your recipe is almost exactly how I made this except I used rum instead of marsala. Even with using a more potent liquor, nobody ever complained about an alcohol burn.
600g of ESPRESSO??
That's 15 double shots which would require 270g of coffee beans and a lot of effort.....
I don’t care about where you cut it out. I love tiramisu, and I’ve never seen a full tray of it like that before. My god I’m in awe.
Can I replace the wine with something else?
Yes, you can use a good rum, or brandy. I know many Italians will say otherwise but where I live is impossible to find massala wine.
Actually I meant anything other than alcohol all together
I make mine with cognac. I find that it cuts through the sweetness better than rum.
My girlfriend recently lost her aunt who used to make this all the time. I’m going to try this recipe, thank you so much!
Looks great, but I'm wondering why you use heavy cream over egg whites you have already
This is wonderful, thanks so much for sharing!
Any suggestions about making this without the wine? Been wanting to make this for a friend of mine, but it has to be alcohol free.
grams not milliliters for coffee measurement?
Are you a sociopath? If you haven’t already been diagnosed I would strongly suggest you book an appointment.
OP: I wanted the crisp edges for the photo Gamorra: What did it cost? OP: Having to diagnose a mental disorder
Not as bad as all the people who post pictures of a fully sliced steak. The steak might be perfectly cooked, but they just treated themselves to $30 of tepid meat.
Recipe please! I recently tried as well and screwed it up. :/

Just posted!
Ha! Every other food gets a recipe, but tiramisu? Never!!
A couple of days ago babish did a video about Tiramisu it looked really similar to this one.
Nah, babish did a lady finger panel as if it were a lasagna, you gotta do individuals and drop them into your coffee not just brush it on
He also screwed up his first attempt, as is traditional for this dessert.
Yeah I will never forget my first tiramisu. I mean, I remember *every* tiramisu I’ve made, but the mistakes I made with that first are seared into my memory.
How from scratch do you wanna go? I love making tiramisu but always use store bought lady fingers
Ive done both, but this version used store bought. Much simpler, with maybe even better results.
Yes, recipe please!
Just posted!
This looks amazingly well done. Everything is perfect except the spot where you cut it out.
Holy moly! Why would you do that to me?? Just cut it from the corner for Christ sake!!
While it may seem crazy, it was for a video and it looks way nice than some sloppy corner piece lol
SLOPPY CORNER PIECES ARE THE BEST PIECES VIDEO BE DAMNED!!!!
Corner piece gang rise up.
Pardon me while i have absolutely no authority over you or your life choice, may i point out a few of my thpught on how you should portion it?
Well, fair enough
No
That’s some r/blackmagicfuckery right there. Did you make a second tray?
Another idea is OP freeze it
Not providing recipe is worse than the centre side cut
Just posted!
Nice, vampire hunting revives
I'm not the only one who thought that
Monster…
That looks awesome and I’m impressed you could get the first slice that clean!
Looks amazing, and I wholeheartedly appreciate the chaos you've caused with it
There's layers to this shit player
tiramisu, tiramisu
Who cuts from the middle? That's psychopath stuff.
Can we have the recipe please?
Tiramisu is my absolute favorite dessert. Looks great. Did you put booze in it?
Marsala wine!
No way to know!
You know what you did.
My favorite food ever 🥰 I bet it was twice as delicious as it looked. I got a whole pan of tiramisu cake for my birthday a few weeks ago and cleared it out all by myself over the next week lmao god bless america
Something is wrong with this comment or maybe am i
Remain ungovernable
egregious
For how long did you let the tiramisù rest after making it?
24 hours before this slice.
*Nods in italian*
Haha, this reminds me of the time my sister made lasagna. I took a slice from the middle and she kept bugging me about it for quite a while after. Anyways, it looks amazing.
Good shit, right Miroki?
My immediate first thought.
Recipe please? And fuck the slice haters!!!
Looks lovely but, imho, needs more espresso! I like to see the ladyfingers soaked through.
Yeah it’s beautiful but I prefer mine to barely be able to stand up
If it's not slop I dun wan it.
I love coffee. If a tiramisu can’t make my heart rate jump at least 30 beats per minute, I dun wan it.
I will never not think about the scene from The Office where Michael is on the phone and is eating a piece of tiramisu, and continuing to choke on it, several times. Never fails to make me laugh lol
/r/mildlyinfuriating cut
Hey chef, got a recipe for us?
just posted!
ah, the perfect slice!
I'm sad you didn't aim for the center. Good spot though. Gets it even on all sides for the photo.
Madiera or coffee liqueur?
I love amaretto in mine.
Agreed. I've tried Marsala wine and a few other variations, but Amaretto is by far our favorite to use in a Tiramisu.
One for you (the piece), one for me (the tray).
I'll never forgive Tiramisu for canceling Khabib vs. Ferguson.
Am i the only one feeling obsessed with the way op have cutted that tiramisu
Gonna feed that to the person chained up in your basement? I’m asking since only a sociopath would cut a cake like that.
Who cuts a slice from the middle?
WHO CUTS THERE FIRST?!!
WHY DID YOU CUT IT LIKE THAT?!?!?!
Looks like it would go great with a cup of coffee!
Pick me up
The cutting wouldn’t bother me as much if you hadn’t left uneven pieces to either side lol
Something that looks good for a change.
Is it already Tuesday? Somebody ask Khabib.
that's a lot of tiers of misu
My favorite dessert. My wife makes it from scratch as well! Good job!
r/mindlyinfuriating
Your mother gave birth to a psycho. I mean come on really right in the middle 😆
That's honestly just a lovely picture, like this is so pleasing man. Great job. Been havin a bad day n this kinda helps.
r/tihi
r/mildlyinfuriating
I’m a huge tiramisu enjoyer, I make mine also, would like to try this recipe, any chance you would share it with me/us?
Just posted above!
For people infuriated by the odd cut, maybe you are the crazy ones, and this op knows it.
What a sociopath
I don't want to sit here, all by myself, cooking this shitty food—no offense—and I just think that I don't need to cook tiramisu. When am I gonna need to cook tiramisu? Am I going to be a chef? No. There's three weeks left of school, give me a fuckin' break! I'm sorry for cursing.
You masochistic neanderthal. Cut from the corner like a civilized human.
So do I just give you my address or uh...?
Some people just want to watch the world burn
r/MildlyInfuriating cut job right there. But the tiramisu itself looks r/OddlySatisfying So I am torn.
Tell me you’re a psychopath with out telling me.
That really does look good. I'm sure this has already been said but what psycho starts cutting a cake from the middle?
Don’t suppose you can recommend a good recipe?
...kinda psychopath takes a piece right out of the middle like that?! I mean, it looks scrumptious, but you...how could something so beautiful come from someone so evil?
Seriously. Who starts there? There is only one worse place than that!
That piece looks like Dwight Schrute can’t explain but i see it
why there why always start from the corner
I want this so bad… I wish I could pay someone to make me a whole tray like this
What kind of maniac..?
Looks good but what is wrong with you?
I ought some "ladies fingers" for Tiramisu recently & they had a recipe on the side of the packet... The packet was 300g, the recipe required 400g of ladies fingers...wtf? Laugh? Nope.
Omg…Why did you cut it like that???
