Coffee Tiramisu Inspired

Lightly dip or drizzle Madeleines with cold brew coffee before layering.

Step 3: Assemble Each Jar

Use this layering method for all three flavors:

1. Add a layer of cream filling.

2. Add 2 Madeleines.

3. Add fruit or coffee element.

4. Add another layer of cream.

5. Add 2 more Madeleines.

6. Finish with a final layer of cream.

Step 4: Finish Two Ways

Serve Immediately version:

• Top with fresh whipped cream.

• For the coffee jar, dust with cocoa powder.

• Serve right away for a soft, creamy texture.

Make Ahead

• Do not add whipped cream.

• Seal jars with lids and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

• Add whipped cream and cocoa just before serving.

Chilling allows the Madeleines to absorb flavor and become extra tender, similar to a trifle.
