Tiramisu
A classic Italian dessert, no raw eggs included!
Ingredients
4 tbsp coffee (Nescafe)
1 cup warm water
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon of vanilla
1 cup (250g) mascarpone cheese
1 cup whipping cream
200g lady fingers
Method
Dissolve the coffee in the water and set aside.
On low heat, using a bain-marie, mix the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl constantly until it thickens. Remove the mixture from the heat, add the vanilla and set aside.
Using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the cream on high speed until it doubles in size.
Add the mascarpone cheese to the yolk mixture and mix. Add the whipped cream in 3 parts and fold.
Dip the lady fingers in the coffee and spread it in a 25cm square pyrex. Add half of the cream, a second layer of the lady fingers dipped in coffee, then the rest of the cream. Dust with cocoa powder.
Chill in the refrigerator 4 hours or overnight.
