Tiramisu Milkshake Delight: A Thick, Creamy Coffee Dessert Shake That Tastes Like Tiramisu in a Glass

  1. Add cold espresso, milk, mascarpone, vanilla, salt, and sweetener (if using) to a blender.
  2. Add vanilla ice cream and crushed ladyfingers (optional).
  3. Blend 20–40 seconds until thick and smooth. Add a splash more milk only if needed.

3) Decorate and serve

  1. Optional: drizzle chocolate syrup inside chilled glasses.
  2. Pour milkshake into glasses.
  3. Top with whipped cream, dust with cocoa powder, and add chocolate shavings.
  4. Serve immediately with a straw (or a spoon if super thick).

Serving and Storage:

This shake is best served immediately, because the ice cream will melt and the texture will thin. If you want to prep ahead,
blend everything except the ice cream and keep the coffee-mascarpone mixture chilled. Then blend with ice cream right before
serving.

  • Best fresh: drink right away for thick, creamy texture.
  • Short storage: can be refrigerated up to 6 hours, then re-blended with ice cubes.
  • Freezer trick: freeze leftovers in popsicle molds for tiramisu pops.

Tips:

  • Use chilled coffee: Hot coffee melts ice cream fast and makes a watery shake.
  • Mascarpone makes it taste “real”: It’s the secret to tiramisu vibes.
  • Salt matters: A tiny pinch boosts coffee and vanilla flavor.
  • Adjust thickness: More ice cream = thicker; more milk = thinner.
  • Cookie boost: Ladyfingers or vanilla wafers add that dessert-like body.

Variations:

  • Decaf version: Use decaf coffee for a night-friendly shake.
  • Mocha tiramisu: Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder or chocolate syrup to the blender.
  • Protein tiramisu shake: Use Greek yogurt + vanilla protein powder + frozen banana instead of ice cream.
  • Dairy-free: Use dairy-free vanilla ice cream and coconut-based “cream cheese” style spread.
  • Extra fancy: Blend in a little espresso powder for stronger coffee flavor.

Tips:

  • Make it look like a café drink: cocoa dust + chocolate curls instantly upgrades the presentation.
  • Prevent separation: blend just until smooth; over-blending can warm the shake.
  • Balance sweetness: taste after blending—coffee strength changes sweetness needs.
  • Party idea: set up a “tiramisu shake bar” with toppings for guests.

Conclusion:

Tiramisu Milkshake Delight is everything you love about tiramisu—espresso flavor, creamy richness, cocoa finish—blended into a
cold, thick dessert shake. It’s fast, impressive, and endlessly customizable. Whether you serve it as a fun treat or a
show-stopping dessert drink, it’s guaranteed to make your day taste sweeter.

FAQ:

Can I make this without mascarpone?

Yes. Cream cheese works in a pinch (use less, since it’s tangier). Greek yogurt also works for a lighter version.

What coffee should I use?

Espresso or strong brewed coffee tastes best. Always chill it first to keep the shake thick.

How do I make it thicker?

Add more ice cream or freeze the coffee into ice cubes and blend those instead of liquid coffee.

Is there a kid-friendly version?

Yes—use decaf coffee or swap coffee for a little cocoa + milk for a chocolate-vanilla “tiramisu-inspired” shake.

Can I prep it ahead?

You can prep the coffee/mascarpone mix ahead and blend with ice cream right before serving for the best texture.
