Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 16 oz Mascarpone cheese
  • 6 pieces Large egg yolks
  • 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups Heavy whipping cream
  • 40 pieces Savoiardi (Ladyfingers)
  • 1 1/2 cups Strong brewed espresso (room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons Marsala wine or dark rum(optional)
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch Salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk egg yolks and sugar in a heat-proof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) for 10 minutes until pale and thick.

  2. 2

    Remove from heat and let the yolk mixture cool slightly, then fold in the mascarpone cheese until smooth and incorporated.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.

  4. 4

    Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture using a spatula to keep the texture light and airy.

  5. 5

    Combine the espresso and Marsala wine in a shallow bowl; quickly dip each ladyfinger into the liquid (1 second per side) so they are soaked but not falling apart.

  6. 6

    Arrange a single layer of soaked ladyfingers in the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking dish.

  7. 7

    Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the ladyfingers, then repeat with a second layer of soaked ladyfingers and the remaining cream.

  8. 8

    Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (preferably overnight), then dust generously with cocoa powder just before serving.
