Ingredients:

- 6 eggs (preferably fresh and of good quality)
- 4 tablespoons of fructose (or sugar, to taste)
- 64 pieces of savoiardi biscuits
- 500 ml of Hulala whipped cream (or another quality plant-based whipped cream)
- 250 g of mascarpone
- 10 sticks of instant coffee (or instant coffee)
- 200 ml of brown rum (optional, but adds a distinct flavor)
- Dark cocoa for decoration

Preparing the tiramisu:

Step 1: Preparing the coffee
The first essential step is to prepare the coffee. In a container, add 10 sticks of instant coffee to 200 ml of hot water. Stir well to obtain a concentrated coffee. Let it cool slightly, then add the brown rum, stirring gently. This combination will add a deep flavor to your tiramisu.

Step 2: Separating the eggs
In a large bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Ensure that no traces of yolk remain in the egg whites, as they need to be whipped to achieve a fluffy texture.

Step 3: Mascarpone cream
In another bowl, beat the yolks with the fructose (or sugar) until the mixture becomes light in color and creamy. This step is crucial as it will contribute to the structure and sweetness of the cream. Add the mascarpone and mix with a spatula, being careful not to leave lumps.

Step 4: Whipping the egg whites
In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. This step will add volume to the cream. Once the egg whites are whipped, gradually fold them into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula and mixing from top to bottom.

Step 5: Whipping the cream
Whip the Hulala cream until it becomes firm. Fold the cream into the mascarpone mixture, being careful not to let it deflate. This combination will give the tiramisu an airy and delicious texture.

Step 6: Assembling the tiramisu
In a serving dish or glass container, start assembling the tiramisu. Quickly dip the savoiardi biscuits in the prepared coffee, being careful not to leave them too long, otherwise, they will become too soggy. Place a layer of biscuits at the bottom of the dish, followed by a generous layer of mascarpone cream. Repeat the process until you finish the ingredients, ensuring to finish with a layer of cream.

Step 7: Decorating
Once the tiramisu is assembled, cover it with a layer of dark cocoa using a sieve to achieve an even coating. This step not only enhances the appearance but also adds a hint of bitterness that perfectly complements the sweetness of the cream.

Step 8: Cooling
Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but ideally overnight. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and intensify.

Practical tips:

- Use fresh, high-quality eggs as they influence the texture and flavor of the tiramisu.
- If you prefer an alcohol-free version, you can omit the rum or replace it with vanilla extract.
- Ensure the cream is well whipped before adding it to the mixture for a fluffy texture.
- If you want a less sweet version, adjust the amount of fructose to taste.
