Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 units Egg yolks
  • ¾ cup Sugar (Granulated )
  • 1½ cups Mascarpone cheese (Room temperature)
  • 2 packs Ladyfinger cookies
  • 1 cup Strong espresso (Cooled)

Method
 

  1. Whisk egg yolks and sugar until thick, fold in mascarpone.
  2. Whip cream to soft peaks and fold into mascarpone mixture.
  3. Quickly dip ladyfingers in espresso mixture and layer with cream.
  4. Repeat layers

Notes

Use room temperature mascarpone to avoid lumps, and don't oversoak the ladyfingers or they'll become mushy. Overnight chilling gives the best flavor and texture.
