Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Base

  • 1/2 cup gluten free all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon espresso powder
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Tiramisu Cream Topping

  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled

Finishing Touch

  • Unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of brownies.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and espresso powder to ensure even distribution of flavors.
  4. Make Brownie Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a thick, uniform batter forms without overmixing to keep brownies tender.
  5. Bake Brownies: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.
  6. Prepare Mascarpone Cream: In a clean bowl, beat mascarpone cheese with the powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (added from step 2) until smooth and creamy.
  7. Whip Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks to create a light and fluffy texture, which will give the tiramisu topping a luxurious mouthfeel.
  8. Combine Cream and Espresso: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, then carefully fold in the cooled brewed espresso, blending to combine without deflating the whipped cream.
  9. Assemble Tiramisu Brownies: Spread the tiramisu cream evenly over the cooled brownies, covering the entire surface smoothly. Refrigerate the assembled brownies for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and cream to set.
  10. Finish and Serve: Before serving, dust the top generously with unsweetened cocoa powder for a classic tiramisu look. Slice into squares and serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the brownies are completely cooled before spreading the mascarpone cream to prevent melting.
  • Use brewed espresso or strong coffee that is fully cooled to avoid curdling the cream.
  • Chilling the brownies for longer than 2 hours will deepen the flavors and firm up the topping for easier slicing.
  • You can substitute sugar with a gluten free-friendly sweetener if preferred.
  • For an extra espresso kick, brush a little coffee over the brownies before adding the cream layer.
