Serves:
4
Preparation Time:
10 minutes
Cooking Time:
2 hours 20 minutes
Total Time:
2 hours 30 minutes

Step 1: You will need:

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 100 g sugar
  • 250 g mascarpone cheese
  • 400 g cream, whipped
  • 250 ml strong espresso, or 3 tsp of strong instant coffee in 250 ml water
  • 2 tbsp brandy
  • 20 lady fingers
  • 50 g cocoa powder
  • 1 saucepan
  • 2 bowls
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 whisk
  • 4 dessert cups
  • 1 small sieve
  • 1 rubber spatula

Step 2: Cook the egg yolks

Place a saucepan 1/3 full of water onto the stove and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, mix together the egg yolks and sugar in a medium bowl. Briefly whip them before placing the bowl over the simmering water. Continue to whip for a few minutes until the eggs are slightly cooked, and it has a smooth, runny consistency.
You can now remove it from the heat. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 3: Add the cheese and cream

Next, spoon the mascarpone into a large bowl with your rubber spatula. Add the lightly cooked egg yolks into the mascarpone cheese. Mix together until the cheese is fully incorporated and lump free. Now slowly spoon in the whipped cream and combine it well with your whisk.

Step 4: Build the tiramisu

Start by combining the espresso and the brandy together with a large spoon. Now dip the entire body of lady fingers into the mix. Let them soak and absorb the mixture for a few seconds. Then place 2 fingers each horizontally into each cup. Next, spoon over the cream mixture, to half fill the cups.

Again, dip the whole body of the lady fingers into the espresso/brandy mix and place three fingers each horizontally into each cup, on top of the cream. Finally, add another layer of cream on top.

Step 5: Cool & Serve

Place it into the fridge for a few hours to set. Before serving, dust with a little cocoa powder.

    Lady fingers are like little cakes, plain and kind of dry. They are available in most supermarkets are are usually inexpensive. They are used in many baking and dessert recipes but are pretty good just dipped in coffee! Linda. http://www.examiner.com/x-26032-Healthy-Comfort-Foods-Examiner
