1 pack of ladyfingers
300 ml whipped cream
250 ml mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
3 egg whites
3 egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 cups brewed coffee
1 tbsp dark rum or white
Procedure:
Add the egg yolks to a bowl. Put the bowl over a pot of soft boiling water and add in the sugar. Whisk it continuously for about 6 minutes until the mixture becomes pale and thick. Turn off the heat, and set it aside to cool.
In separate bowl, beat the whipped cream until you get stiff peaks. Add in the mascarpone and egg yolks. If the egg yolk mixture has become too thick from sitting, add a little milk and whisk it again. Using a spatula, gently fold it together until it’s just just combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites, using an electric mixer or wire whisk, until soft peaks form.Gently fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture until it’s incorporated.
Combine the brewed coffee with a tablespoon of rum and stir it. Dip the ladyfingers in, one at a time, for about 1 or 2 seconds. Transfer them to the bottom of a 8 inch square baking dish. Repeat this process until the bottom is fully covered with ladyfingers. Put 1/2 of the cream mixture over the top, and smooth it out the top using a spatula. Repeat the same procedure for the next layer.
Dust the top with cocoa powder. Cover it with plastic wrap, and allow it to chill in the fridge for at least 6-8 hours or until set.
