Description

Creamy High-Protein Tiramisu Trifles layered with espresso-soaked ladyfingers, a smooth Greek yogurt and mascarpone filling, and a dusting of cocoa powder. A lighter twist on the Italian classic that feels indulgent yet balanced.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup brewed espresso, cooled
  • 16 ladyfingers
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Brew the espresso and allow it to cool completely.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mascarpone cheese, vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled espresso, making sure not to soak them too long.
  4. Place a layer of dipped ladyfingers at the bottom of each serving glass.
  5. Add a layer of the protein mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers.
  6. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, ending with the cream layer on top.
  7. Dust the tops evenly with cocoa powder using a fine sieve.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Do not oversoak the ladyfingers or the layers may become too soft.
  • Chilling improves both texture and flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness depending on the protein powder used.
  • Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
