This is the dessert we made to top off our Christmas menu on Zoom—literally! Haha. I'm not sure whether to call it a tiramisu, a cheesecake, or a trifle, but what I do know is that it's absolutely delicious!

Cooking Instructions

30 min
  1. 1

    Whip the cold heavy cream in a stand mixer on high speed. Meanwhile, crush the cookies into a fine powder and mix with the melted butter. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a saucepan, make the caramel by combining the sugar and water. Stir a few times and then let it sit until it turns a caramel color.

  3. 3

    Once the cream is fully whipped, transfer it to a bowl and set aside. In the mixer bowl, add the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth. Add a couple of tablespoons of the whipped cream and continue beating.

  4. 4

    Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula, gently combining until you have a smooth and airy cream.

  5. 5

    When the caramel starts to brown, add the butter and let it blend well with the caramel. Remove from heat. Carefully add the cream, as it may splatter. Mix well and return to heat to let it boil slightly and thicken. Add a pinch of salt at the end and set aside.

  6. 6

    Assembly: Place the cookie and butter mixture at the bottom of the jar, add a spoonful of caramel, then the cream. Repeat the process a couple of times until you reach the top of the jar. Decorate as desired and chill until ready to serve.
