Tiramisu - 1

Courses: Dessert
Serves: 1 people

Recipe Ingredients

24   Ladyfingers - split
3/4 cup 177mlEspresso coffee - cooled
6   Eggs - separated
6 tablespoons 90mlSugar
14 oz 397gMascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons 30mlBrandy
8 oz 227gBittersweet - chocolate,
  OR coarsely - grated

Recipe Instructions

1. Heat oven to 375F. Arrange ladyfingers on a baking sheet and bake until toasted golden, 5 to 10 minutes.

2. Arrange half the ladyfingers in a 2 or 2 1/2 inch deep oval or rectangular serving dish. Brush lightly with espresso.

3. In a large mixing bowl, beat egg whites at high speed with electric mixer until they are stiff. Set aside. In a small mixing bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar at medium speed with electric mixer until thick and lemon colored. Add mascarpone and brandy. Stir gently.

4. Gently fold egg whites into the mascarpone mixture. Spread half the mixture on the ladyfingers in the serving dish, then sprinkle with half the chocolate. Repeat layers of lady-fingers, mascarpone mixture and chocolate. Cover with foil. Refrigerate for at least an hour.

Note: Mascarpone is sold in Italian delis, cheese shops and specialty food markets. Use the standare 1-inch variety ladyfingers (I assume this means thickness)
