All the flavors and textures of tiramisu in a creamy no churn ice cream. This recipe is so simple but so delicious and perfect to beat the heat. With a few ingredients this coffee lovers dessert will make any one fall in love with this recipe.
To make the sauce we add all the ingredients (condensed milk, dark chocolate chips, instant coffee, vanilla) except for the butter and heavy cream into a sauce pot and stir together on low heat until combined.
Let it bubble for a 30 seconds, take off the heat add the cream and whisk until smooth.

Mascarpone ice cream
Whisk the heavy cream until stiff peaks in a mixing bowl with an electric beater.
Add the condensed milk, mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth and combined. Add the vanilla and liqueur, whisk again.
Assembly
Start by adding 1/2 cup of the ice cream base into a a 9 inch loaf tin, spread it out.
Soak a couple of the lady finger sponges into the cooled coffee and layer onto the ice cream base. repeat to create a layer of sponge.
Dollop the coffee fudge sauce randomly on top of the soaked sponge fingers.
Repeat with a layer of ice cream, soaked sponge fingers, fudge sauce. I like to create 2 layers of sponge and finish with the ice cream base. Cover with cling wrap and allow it to set in the fridge for 6-8 hours.
Garnish
Top the frozen tiramisu ice cream with whipped cream and a generous dusting of cocoa powder.
Scoop and serve as you like.
Notes
The coffee fudge sauce must be cooled before using in the ice cream.
For easy scoops, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes and dunk the scoop into hot water.
To keep this kid friendly remove the alcohol and use 1 tsp balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar
