Tiramisu Recipe

Tiramisu Recipe

  • 6 egg yolks
  • 1 cup white sugar, divided
  • 1 pound mascarpone cheese
  • 6 egg whites, stiffly beaten
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons kirschwasser
  • 1 1/4 cups strong brewed coffee, cold
  • 25 ladyfingers
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  1. In a medium bowl beat together the egg yolks and 1/3 cup of sugar. Using a wooden spoon stir in mascarpone cheese, beaten egg whites, cream and kirschwasser; stir until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Dissolve remaining 2/3 cup sugar in coffee. Quickly, to avoid complete saturation, dip ends of ladyfingers in coffee mixture. Place ladyfingers in a single layer in a 9 x 13 inch glass baking dish. Spread a layer of cheese mixture over the ladyfingers; repeat layers, ending with cheese mixture.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for several hours. Sprinkle with cocoa just before serving.
