Tiramisu
Note: In Italian, tiramisu literally means "pick me up." After one bite of
the espresso-and-Kahlua-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone cheese, and
grated chocolate, you will understand why this dessert is a classic. For a
contemporary twist on the original, make the tiramisu in individual
glasses.
1 egg
6 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 1/4 cups mascarpone cheese
3 egg whites
1 cup espresso
1/2 cup Kahlua
48 ladyfingers
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Whip the egg, egg yolks, 1 cup of the sugar, and the vanilla together
in a large stainless steel bowl over simmering water for about 3 to 4
minutes, or until the volume nearly doubles and the mixture becomes a
light lemon yellow.
Transfer the egg and sugar mixture to an electric mixing bowl and
beat on high speed until the mixture has cooled to room temperature,
about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the mascarpone and blend on low speed until
very smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape the sides and bottom of the
bowl to blend evenly.
Beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar in a clean bowl to
medium-stiff peaks, about 5 to 6 minutes. Fold the beaten egg whites
into the mascarpone mixture in two additions. Refrigerate until needed.
Combine the espresso and Kahlua to make a syrup. Place a layer of
ladyfingers in a 2 1/2 quart bowl. Moisten the ladyfingers well with the
syrup and dust evenly with cocoa powder. Top with a 1-inch thick layer
of the mascarpone filling. Repeat layering in this sequence until the
bowl is full, ending with a layer of filling. Dust the entire surface of
the cake with cocoa power and powdered sugar. Chill thoroughly before
serving. Yields: 8 servings
