My Version of Yankee Stadium’s Mini Helmet Tiramisu
This is the first in my recipe series of recreating and putting my own twist on MLB Stadium desserts. Since I’m a huge Yankee fan, the first one was a no-brainer.
Yankee Stadium – Christian Petroni – Tiramisu Mini Helmets
While this is not exactly what you will be getting at the stadium, this is my version of Tiramisu and it will taste infinitely better in a mini-Yankee helmet.
I hope you give my version a try, but if you go to Yankee Stadium you can find the real deal at the Christian Petroni Stand at Section 125.
Play Ball!!!!!
Italian Lady Fingers:
Store bought lady fingers are great, but if you have the time I definitely recommend making your own. They can be made a few days ahead and stored in an air tight container.

Ingredients
- 3 Egg Yolks
- 6 tablespoons of Granulated Sugar
- 8 ounces of Cold Mascarpone Cheese, straight from the fridge
- ½ teaspoon of Vanilla Bean Paste or Extract
- ⅓ cup of Heavy Cream
- Italian Lady Fingers
- 1 cup of Espresso, Flavored with a tablespoon of Coffee Liquor, Amaretto, Sweet Marsala or whatever you like
- 2 ounces of Dark Chocolate, grated
- Cocoa Powder for dusting the tops
Instructions
- Add the egg yolks and sugar to a heat proof bowl and place it over simmering water. Gently mix using a rubber spatula to combine. You’re looking for the mixture to reach a temperature of about 160ºF.
- Place the egg mixture into the bowl of stand mixer, or in a large bowl with hand mixer, and using the whisk attachment beat on high until doubled in volume and light in color. About 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cold mascarpone and the vanilla and continue to beat on medium speed until the ingredients are combined and the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
- Whip the heavy cream to medium stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg/mascarpone mixture
- Assembly:
- Quickly dip the ladyfingers into the coffee and place a layer on the bottom of each serving container. You may need to break the lady fingers in order for them to fit.
- Pipe or spoon on a layer of the cream and sprinkle with the grated chocolate.
- Repeat the layers 2 more times ending with the cream.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours.
- Before serving, dust with cocoa powder.
- Enjoy!!
