A Christmas twist on classic tiramisù, made with pandoro (Italian sweet bread) instead of ladyfingers. Layers of creamy mascarpone custard, toasted pandoro soaked in coffee, finished with a dusting of cocoa powder. A festive and indulgent dessert.

- Finish with a final layer of cream and dust generously with cocoa powder. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
