  • 5 thin slices, prosciutto, coarsely chopped (about 4 ounces)
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces mascarpone cheese (see note)

Notes

Readily available in the dairy section of the supermarket, mascarpone is the cheese of choice in tiramisu. It can be pricey, so if you need a substitute, try cream cheese.
