Ingredients:

500g of mascarpone cheese

4 eggs (yolks and whites separated)

120g sugar

200ml strong coffee

cold 24 ladyfingers

2 tablespoons of cocoa powder

Preparation:

In a bowl, mix the egg yolks with half the sugar. Beat well until the mixture is creamy. Add the mascarpone to the yolk-sugar mixture. Mix well until smooth and set aside. In another bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently incorporate the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture. Stir gently to preserve the lightness of the cream. In a deep dish, pour the cold coffee. Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee and arrange them in a single layer in a rectangular baking dish. Spread half of the mascarpone cream over the layer of ladyfingers. Repeat the process with another layer of coffee-soaked ladyfingers and cover them with the remaining mascarpone cream. Sprinkle cocoa powder generously on top of the tiramisu. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, so that the flavors blend and the dessert solidifies. Before serving, sprinkle some cocoa powder on top to decorate. Cut into individual portions and serve cold.
