Cook safely
Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.
- Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
- Blending hot liquid. Let it cool a little first, fill the blender no more than a third, and hold the lid down with a folded towel. Start on the lowest speed. A stick blender in the pan is safer.
- Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

- Combine hot water and espresso granules in a small bowl. Split ladyfingers in half lengthwise. Quickly dip 20 ladyfinger halves, cut side down, into espresso. Place, dipped side down, in the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish. Dip 20 more ladyfinger halves, cut side down, into espresso; arrange, dipped side down, on top of first layer. Spread 2 cups cheese mixture evenly over ladyfinger halves; repeat procedure with remaining ladyfinger halves, espresso, and cheese mixture.
- Place one wooden pick in each corner and one in the center of tiramisu (to prevent plastic wrap from sticking to cheese mixture); cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 8 to 24 hours. Remove wooden picks; sprinkle with cocoa.
