Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Baking dish
- Sieve for dusting cocoa
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 200 g mascarpone cheese
- 100 g sugar
- 3 egg yolks
- 12 units ladyfingers or boudoirs
- 150 ml espresso cooled
- 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- q.s. cocoa powder for dusting
- q.s. chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by brewing strong espresso. Let it cool before stirring in coffee liqueur. The aroma fills your kitchen instantly. Pro tip: Use freshly ground beans for the best flavor. Avoid instant coffee if possible—it lacks depth.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy. This step builds the base of your filling. Keep whisking until the mixture thickens slightly and feels smooth.
- Gently fold mascarpone cheese into the yolk mixture. Add vanilla extract for warmth. Be careful not to overmix; you want a light texture.
- Dip ladyfingers briefly into the espresso mix. Arrange them in a dish and spread a layer of mascarpone on top. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used.
- Dust the top generously with cocoa powder. Refrigerate for at least four hours. Chilling allows the flavors to meld beautifully. Serve chilled for the ultimate experience.
