Ingredients  

For the Cream

  • 2 cups Full-Fat Cottage Cheese
  • 1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/3 cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/8 tsp Fine Salt
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream

For Assembly

  • 1 1/4 cups Brewed Espresso, Cooled
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 24 Crisp Ladyfingers
  • 2 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

Equipment

  • blender
  • electric mixer

Instructions 

  • Blend the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, 1/3 cup maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until completely smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
  • Whip the heavy cream until it holds medium peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cottage cheese mixture to create a light tiramisu cream.
  • Stir the cooled espresso and 2 tablespoons maple syrup together in a shallow bowl.
  • Briefly dip half of the ladyfingers in the espresso mixture, one at a time, and arrange them in the bottoms of six dessert cups. Avoid soaking them long enough to become soggy.
  • Spoon half of the cottage cheese cream over the ladyfingers. Repeat with the remaining dipped ladyfingers and cream.
  • Cover and refrigerate the tiramisu cups for at least 6 hours so the layers soften and the flavors blend.
  • Dust the tops evenly with cocoa powder immediately before serving.
