Ingredienti

6 Egg Yolks •

1 Cup Sugar •

1 1/4 Cups Mascarpone Cheese •

1 3/4 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream, Cold •

Metodo

Passo 1

1. Using An Electric Mixer In A Medium Bowl, Whip Together Egg Yolks And 1/4 Cup/50 Grams Sugar Until Very Pale Yellow And About Tripled In Volume. A Slight Ribbon Should Fall From The Beaters (or Whisk Attachment) When Lifted From The Bowl. Transfer Mixture To A Large Bowl, Wiping Out The Medium Bowl Used To Whip The Yolks And Set Aside.
Passo 2

2. Whip Cream And Remaining 1/4 Cup/50 Grams Sugar Until It Creates Soft-medium Peaks. Add Mascarpone And Continue To Whip Until It Creates A Soft, Spreadable Mixture With Medium Peaks. Gently Fold The Mascarpone Mixture Into The Sweetened Egg Yolks
Passo 3

Working One At A Time, Quickly Dip Each Ladyfinger Into The Espresso Mixture -- They Are Quite Porous And Will Fall Apart If Left In The Liquid Too Long -- And Place Them Rounded Side Up At The Bottom Of The Baking Dish.
Passo 4

Repeat, Using Half The Ladyfingers, Until You’ve Got An Even Layer, Breaking The Ladyfingers In Half As Needed To Fill In Any Obvious Gaps (a Little Space In Between Is O.k.). Spread Half The Mascarpone Mixture Onto The Ladyfingers In One Even Layer.
Passo 5

Dust Top Layer With Remaining Tablespoon Of Cocoa Powder. Top With Shaved Or Finely Grated Chocolate, If Desired.
