At Il Mulino New York in Boca Raton, the tiramisu is built on ladyfingers soaked with espresso and coffee liqueur, then layered generously with mascarpone cream.[7] What sets this version apart is the precise balance of coffee bitterness and creamy sweetness, with the alcohol element adding depth rather than overpowering the dessert.[7] Each bite brings a soft, moist sponge texture against the cool, silky mascarpone, with the cocoa dusting on top tying the flavors together.[7] Guests who focus on classic Italian desserts consistently single out this tiramisu as a refined, restaurant-quality take on the traditional recipe.[7]
