How to Make Tiramisu An Italian Delight
- In a large bowl, beat 6 large egg yolks with 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 10 minutes) using a stand or hand mixer.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup Kahlúa and 1/4 cup strong brewed coffee.
- Transfer to a double boiler over gently simmering water. Whisk constantly for 7-10 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- In a separate bowl, beat 16 ounces of mascarpone cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold the cooled egg yolk mixture into the mascarpone cheese until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip 2 cups heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold one-quarter of the whipped cream into the cheese mixture.
- Fold in the remaining whipped cream until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Combine 1/4 cup Kahlúa, 1/4 cup strong brewed coffee, and 1/4 cup extra-strong brewed coffee in a small bowl.
- Arrange half of 24 ladyfingers in a 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
- Brush the ladyfingers evenly with half of the coffee mixture.
- Spread half of the cream mixture over the soaked ladyfingers.
- Repeat layers with remaining ladyfingers, coffee mixture, and cream mixture.
- Top with 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted evenly.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
