Remove from heat and stir in basil.
Keep warm.
In large bowl, combine mascarpone, eggs, salt and pepper until completely blended.
Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.
When butter starts to foam, add egg mixture.
Push eggs gently with a rubber spatula in a figure-8 motion forming soft curds. Cook until just set but still creamy and moist, about 7 minutes.
