Espresso Mascarpone Tiramisu Toast brings the creamy, coffee-kissed charm of tiramisu to a decadent slice of custardy bread. The espresso-soaked interior contrasts with a lightly sweetened Marsala mascarpone topping for a rich yet balanced bite.

1

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
2

Crack the egg into a baking dish. Add white sugar, espresso, and vanilla extract, then whisk to combine.
3

Place the bread slices in the dish and toss them in the mixture to saturate; let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to fully absorb.
4

Transfer the bread slices to the prepared pan and drizzle any accumulated coffee mixture over the top.
5

Bake the toast in the center of the preheated oven until the custard is set and the bread springs back slightly when touched, 20 to 25 minutes.
6

Transfer the slices to a wire rack to cool to room temperature.
7

Meanwhile, pour the wine into a saucepan, add sugar, and cook over medium heat until reduced to about 1 tablespoon.
8

Remove from the heat and let cool.
9

Place the mascarpone cheese in a bowl, add the cooled wine reduction and a very small pinch of salt, and stir with a spatula until combined.

Chill before piping or spreading on the cooled toast. Top with shaved chocolate.
