Step 1

Place cottage cheese into a fine mesh sieve and rinse with cold water to remove extra salt. Let drain for a few minutes.

Step 2

In a high speed blender, add cottage cheese, milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Process until smooth, about 2-3 minutes, pausing and scraping the walls of a blender with a spatula, if necessary. Transfer to a medium bowl.

Step 3

Get 9 x 5 loaf pan and place cold coffee into another small bowl. Tiramisu will consist of 3 layer of 6 cookies each. Measure to make sure 6 cookies fit into a loaf pan and if necessary trim them to fit in. I had to do that.

Step 4

Dip 6 lady fingers one by one into cold coffee to make sure to coat on both sides. Place in a single layer in a loaf pan, top with 1/3rd of cottage cheese mixture and level it with spatula. Repeat with 2 more layers.

Step 5

Wrap the loaf pan tightly with tin foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or better if overnight.

Step 6

Place cacao powder into a small fine mesh sieve and sprinkle on top of tiramisu. Using a knife cut into 6 slices. To serve, use flexible silicone spatula. Serve tiramisu cold.
