This is one of my sweetheart's favorite desserts. I am able to get the ladyfingers at my local supermarket. It is a delicious treat for anyone who loves coffee. I was able to get the recipe from the blog, Recipe Tin Eats.
- 3 eggs , yolks and whites separated
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz / 250g mascarpone
- 1 1/4 cups hot espresso coffee
- 2 tbsp (or more!) of Kahlua
- 6.5 oz / 200g (24 - 30) lady fingers
- Cocoa , for dusting
Instructions
-
Beat yolks and sugar in stand mixer on medium high for 12 minutes or until white and thick.
-
Add vanilla and mascarpone, beat until just combined. Transfer mixture to a bowl, set aside.
-
Clean bowl and whisk. Beat egg whites until stiff.
-
Fold 1/3 of the yolk mixture into the egg whites. Then gradually fold the remaining yolk mixture in and mix until just combined.
-
Mix coffee and liquor together. Quickly dip biscuits in and line the bottom of a 8”/20cm square dish.
-
Spread over half the cream, then top with another layer of coffee dipped biscuits.
-
Spread with remaining cream.
-
Cover, refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight
-
Dust with cocoa powder just before serving - either before you cut or after placing onto serving plates.
