• 9×9 inch (23×23 cm) Baking Dish
• Measuring Cups and Spoons
• Spatula
• Whisk
• Sifter or Fine Mesh Strainer

Cooking Time: Total estimated time: 25 minutes (preparation) + 4 hours (chilling time)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Coffee Mixture

In a shallow dish, combine the cooled espresso and coffee liqueur. Stir gently to mix. Set the mixture aside for dipping the ladyfingers later.

Step 2: Whisk the Egg Yolks

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale and creamy. This may take about 5 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.

Step 3: Incorporate Mascarpone

Gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the egg yolk mixture using a spatula. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Beat the Egg Whites

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture, preserving as much air in the mixture as possible.

Step 5: Whip the Cream

In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold it into the mascarpone cheese mixture until just combined.

Step 6: Assemble the Tiramisu

Briefly dip each ladyfinger into the espresso mixture (do not soak!) and lay them at the bottom of your baking dish. Spread half of the mascarpone cream mixture over the ladyfingers. Add another layer of dipped ladyfingers and top with the remaining mascarpone cream.

Step 7: Chill and Serve

Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the textures to set. Before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with cocoa powder using a sifter. Serve chilled and enjoy!
