Step-by-Step Instructions for Pistachio Tiramisu
- In a large mixing bowl, pour in the cold heavy cream and sift in the confectioners' sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until soft, medium peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. Set the whipped cream aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the mascarpone and pistachio cream. Mix thoroughly until smooth and light green with streaks of pistachio, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture to lighten it. Add the remaining whipped cream and fold carefully until no streaks remain.
- Combine the cold espresso and almond extract in a shallow dish. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into this mixture for about 1 second per side, then arrange half of the dipped ladyfingers in a single layer at the bottom of a 13x9 pan.
- Spread half of the creamy pistachio mixture evenly over the layer of dipped ladyfingers using a spatula.
- Add another layer of quickly dipped ladyfingers on top of the creamy mixture, followed by the remaining pistachio cream mixture, smoothing it out evenly.
- Top the dessert with crushed pistachios. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
