Tiramisu

Ingredients for 8 servings:

• 500 g mascarpone
• 1 pack of ladyfingers
• 1 large jar of espresso or coffee (approx. 300 – 350 ml), boiled
• 4 eggs
• 4 tbsp sugar
• 4 packets of vanilla sugar
• tbsp cocoa powder for sprinkling

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 4 hours; Total time approx. 4 hours 30 minutes

Separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff. Combine the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla sugar in a bowl and whisk until the mixture is whitish. Fold the mascarpone into the egg yolk mixture. Fold in the egg whites. Important: fold in, do not stir! Using a tablespoon, pour the coffee over the top and bottom of the sponge fingers. If you like it a little more “squishy,” you can also briefly dip the sponge fingers in the coffee. Place half of the sponge fingers close together in a baking dish and spread half of the cream on top. Stack a second layer of sponge fingers and spread the remaining cream on top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Sprinkle with cocoa powder just before serving.
