Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Tiramisu Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the large eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then blend in the vanilla extract.
  5. Dissolve the instant coffee granules in hot water, then gradually mix into the butter mixture.
  6. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers appear soft.
  9. Cool the cookies on the sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Prepare the creamy filling by mixing mascarpone cheese and heavy cream until smooth. Add coffee liqueur if using.
  11. Spread a layer of the mascarpone filling on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich with another cookie.
  12. Dust the tops of the assembled cookies with unsweetened cocoa powder.
