Total preparation: 3.5 hours (cool in refrigerator 3 hours).

​

    Ingredients

    • 500g Mascarpone

    • 5 Eggs

    • 5 tbsp Powdered sugar

    • 40 ladyfingers

    • 2 cups of cold espresso (without sugar)

    • 2 tbsp Marsala (Italian dessert wine)

    • some bitter cocoa powder, unsweetened

    ​

    Other supplies

    Deep plate, cake pan (can also be used in a 27cm springform pan, but then you need a little more of everything)

      Preparation

      Making the filling:

      Separate yolk and egg whites.

      Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until the sugar is incorporated

      Add the mascarpone and stir and mix until a homogeneous mass.

      ​

      Beat the egg whites until stiff (until you can get nice peaks/points).

      Gently fold in the egg mixture whole, it should remain airy.

      ​

      Mix the Marsala and cooled espresso in a bowl/deep plate

      Briefly dip the ladyfingers in this one by 1.

      ​

      Building the Tiramisu:

      Cover the bottom (about half) with the ladyfingers.

      Place half the filling over this

      Put your long fingers on this again.

      Add the rest of the filling.

      ​

      Place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours! Preferably longer... 12 hours?!

      ​

      Before serving, sprinkle some cocoa powder over the Tiramisu (if you have it through a fine sieve).
