Tiramisu
makes: 12 Servings
1 lb Mascarpone cheese
1/2 c Brandy or tia maria
1/2 c Cold espresso coffee
4 Fresh eggs; separated
1 c White sugar1 pk Ladyfingers (I prefer to-use 1 1/2 or 2 packages)
3 Squares semi-sweet-chocolate; grated
You will need a 9 x 13 pan.
1. Beat egg yolks with the brandy until well mixed. Add the mascarponeand continue to beat until smooth.
2. Whip the egg whites until frothy and gradually add the white sugar.Continue to beat until they are quite stiff.
3. Dip the ladyfingers, one by one and quickly or they will get soggy, inthe coffee and put a single layer in the bottom of the pan.
4. Pour half the cheese mixture over the ladyfingers and sprinkle half ofthe grated chocolate.
5. Repeat 3 and 4, using the rest of the ladyfingers, cheese andchocolate.
6. Chill for 4 - 6 hours and enjoy!!!
VARIATION: When strawberries are in season, this is a wonderful variation:
1 quart of fresh strawberries2 tablespoons white sugar1/4 cup brandy Wash, hull and thickly slice the berries. Pour thesugar and brandy over them and let them sit while you are mixing the cheeseand grating the chocolate. To assemble, put a layer of ladyfingers as aboveand then a layer of strawberries, a layer of cheese and chocolate. Repeatthis once. You might want to use a larger pan if you are using berries. Iknow from experience that 9 x 13 is not quite large enough. Other berries,i.e. raspberries, or cherries would also be good although I haven't triedthem. This makes a large dessert and is great for potlucks or dinnerparties./DESSERTS
