Instructions
- In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar over a simmering pot (double boiler) for 5–6 minutes until thick and pale. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Beat in mascarpone and vanilla until smooth.
- Whip heavy cream to soft peaks and gently fold into the mascarpone mixture.
- In a shallow dish, combine cooled espresso with liqueur (if using).
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture and layer in a dish.
- Spread half of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of soaked cookies and cream.
- Cover and chill for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- Dust with cocoa powder just before serving.
Notes
- Dip ladyfingers quickly to avoid sogginess.
- For an eggless version, omit yolks and double the whipped cream.
- Try layering into individual cups for easy single servings.
