How to Make Sophia Lorens Tiramisu
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large egg yolks and ¾ cup granulated sugar until pale and thick.
- In a separate clean bowl, beat 6 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- In a large bowl, gently fold the mascarpone cheese (24 oz) into the egg yolk mixture until smooth. Then, delicately fold in the whipped egg whites in thirds, ensuring not to deflate the mixture.
- Arrange a single layer of ladyfingers (about 24) tightly in a 9x12 inch baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine ½ cup strong brewed espresso and ½ cup of your chosen liqueur (or substitute flavoring). Drizzle about half of this mixture evenly over the ladyfingers.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the soaked ladyfingers. Sprinkle with ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder and ½ cup of grated semi-sweet chocolate.
- Repeat layers 4-6 with the remaining ladyfingers, espresso mixture, and mascarpone mixture. Dust the top with the remaining cocoa powder.
- Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, dust the top with a final light layer of cocoa powder. Enjoy!
