👩‍🍳 How to Make Tiramisu Brownies

⭐ 1. Prepare the Fudgy Brownies

  5. Pour into a lined baking pan and bake for 25–30 minutes or until the center is just set.
  6. Let the brownies cool completely.

⭐ 2. Brush with Coffee Syrup

While brownies are still slightly warm, brush generously with the coffee syrup.
This is what gives the dessert that true tiramisu richness.

  2. In another bowl, mix mascarpone, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
