Classic Tiramisu

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Whisk egg yolks and sugar together until pale and thick, about 3 minutes. Fold in mascarpone until smooth.

2. 2

   Whip egg whites in a separate clean bowl until stiff peaks form.

3. 3

   Gently fold egg whites into mascarpone mixture in three additions until light and airy.

4. 4

   Mix coffee and liqueur in a shallow bowl. Dip ladyfingers briefly (about 1 second per side) — don't soak too long.

5. 5

   Arrange a layer of dipped ladyfingers in a 9×13 dish.

6. 6

   Spread half the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers. Repeat layers.

7. 7

   Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight.

8. 8

   Dust generously with cocoa powder just before serving. Shave chocolate on top if desired.
