Ingredients
- 6 egg yolks
- ½ cup sugar
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 vanilla pod or 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 6 eggs white
- 24 savoiardi ladyfinger cookies
- 8 hot espresso coffee
- 3 tbsp rum or marsala
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- ½ cup chopped dark chocolate
Instructions
- Prepare the coffee, add the rum (optional) and let it cool down completely.
- Coarsely chop the chocolate, and set aside.
- Divide the egg yolks from the whites: put the yolks in the bowl of your stand mixer (KitchenAid) and start beating them.
- Prepare the syrup for pasteurizing the eggs. Bring the water and sugar to 250°F (121°C). Use a food thermometer. If you do not have one, just look at the sugar. If it makes bigger and thicker bubbles than before, it’s ready.
- Gently pour in the sugar syrup into the egg yolks and beat them on medium speed until the mixture cools down to about 68°F (20°C) where they are fluffy and pale yellow.
- Stir the mascarpone until creamy and fluffy; in the beginning, it will be quite sticky, and then it will get runnier.
- Add the vanilla seeds or extract to the mascarpone cream and mix well with a wooden spoon.
- Dilute the mascarpone with a little egg yolk mixture, which will get softer. Incorporate the remaining part of the egg mixture with gentle downwards movements.
- Whip the egg whites or cream into stiff peaks and fold in the mascarpone cream. Here again, use a little whipped whites to dilute the mascarpone cream.
- Then add the remaining with gentle downward movements.
- Now to assemble your dessert: dip the ladyfingers on both sides in the cold coffee.
- Arrange them in a glass or aluminum pan or ceramic dish.
- Spread the mascarpone cream on the top; sprinkle with cocoa powder and the coarsely chopped chocolate.
- Repeat one more time, spread the last layer of cream, and top with cocoa powder and chocolate shavings.
- Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Top it with more cocoa powder just before serving.
- Tiramisu doesn’t last long: it stays fresh up to 3 days in the fridge.
