Ingredients:
17 ounces mascarpone cheese
4 egg yolks
2 pkgs. of lady fingers
½ cup of sugar plus a little extra to sweeten coffee
Unsweetened cocoa powder
6 cups of mocha coffee
First prepare the coffee, which is essential to wet the lady fingers * See
note below
Put in a bowl and add sugar to your taste, then let it cool.
Whip the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture is puffy and creamy.
Add the mascarpone cheese until creamy, smooth and fluffy.
You got the cream of tiramisu!
Lightly dip the lady fingers in coffee for longer than a couple seconds or
they will get soggy. Put a single layer of into the bottom of your baking dish
Cover the lady fingers with a layer of mascarpone cream.
Arrange now the second layer of lady fingers.
Cover them with the remaining cream and level.
Sprinkle with cocoa powder the surface of the Tiramisu and store in refrigerator
until it is to be eaten. I added
chocolate shavings for a garnish
- NOTES* If you are unable to find lady fingers
in your local grocery you can substitute Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies.
