Ingredients

250 grams of mascarpone cheese
8 espresso shots
4 egg yolks& 6 egg whites
5 tablespoons of sugar
1 package of lady fingers (approx 36)
1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder

Preparation

1
Make up your shots of espresso first so that the coffee has time to cool down in a shallow bowl
2
Separate your eggs and place in 2 separate bowls
3
Combine the egg yolks with the sugar and beat well to smooth out the granules as much as possible
4
In a separate bowl, beat up your egg white until stiff
5
In a third, larger bowl, combine the egg yolk mixture with the mascarpone, then fold in the egg whites to produce a creamy mixture.
6
Get your serving dish (12″ by 9″) ready and quickly dip your ladyfingers in the espresso then arrange them in along the dish (you want to be careful about not over-drenching the ladyfingers as this will make the dish too watery)
7
Pour a layer of your creamy mascarpone mixture until you cover the ladyfingers
8
Sprinkle the cocoa powder over the top and then repeat the process.
9
Place the Tiramisu in the fridge for at least 8 hours
10
Et voila! Buon appetito!
