Tiramisu is an Italian dessert typically made from ladyfinger pastries, espresso coffee, and mascarpone cheese. The name "Tiramisu" means "pick-me-up," and this recipe certainly will. You'll make your guests' mouths water in no time! Pick up some ladyfingers and mascarpone cheese the next time you're at the store.
Use a large bowl for the egg white and a smaller bowl for the yolk. Make sure that none of the yolk gets mixed with the egg white; otherwise the egg whites won't whisk properly.
Gradually add sugar until the egg yolk becomes thick, creamy, and light yellow.
Put about 500 grams (~12.3 oz.) of Mascarpone Cheese into another bowl. Give it a quick stir to loosen it up. Then, with the electronic whisk, mix the egg yolks and Mascarpone together.
Wash and dry your whisk and then whisk the egg whites until they form firm peaks. Continue to fold the egg whites into the Mascarpone and mix until there are no lumps.
Put that mixture to the side. Make some strong espresso and let it cool.
Line a large and fairly deep dish with boudoir biscuits.Pour over two thirds of the coffee mixture.
Put half of your egg mixture over the top of that, followed by a thick dusting of cocoa powder. Use an instant drinking chocolate, if preferred, as it's a little sweeter.
Dip more lady fingers into the rest of your coffee mix (don't worry if you run out; you can just knock up some more). Carefully place them over the top of the cocoa.
Empty the rest of your egg mixture over that and dust with cocoa again.Leave it in your refrigerator for two hours to set and serve.
