Ingredients for 8 servings:
- 500 g mascarpone
- 5 eggs
- 5 tbsp honey
- 1 pack of ladyfingers
- 4 espressos
- 5 drops of bitter almond flavor, optional, not required
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
Instructions
Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 6 hours; Total time approx. 6 hours 20 minutes
Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the mascarpone, egg yolks, and honey. Then fold in the beaten egg whites. Mix the cold espresso with the bitter almond oil. The flavoring can be omitted. Briefly dip the unsweetened side of the sponge fingers into the espresso and place them on the sugared side. This prevents the sponge fingers from becoming soggy, as the sugared side absorbs the liquid. Repeat until the bottom of the dish is covered. Spread half of the cream on top. Add another layer of soaked sponge fingers and the remaining cream. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Dust thickly with cocoa powder before serving. This is exactly enough for a large square glass baking dish.
