Ingredients
-
2 tbsp Instant coffee
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp Marsala wine
1/4 cup coffee liqueur, such as Kahlua or Tia Maria
3 None eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1 container (16 oz) mascarpone
1/3 cup whipped cream
3-4 pkg (3 oz each) soft ladyfingers
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation
-
Mix instant coffee and 3/4 cup boiling water in a shallow bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup of the Marsala and coffee liqueur.
Beat egg yolks and 1/2 cup of the sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed 4-5 mins or until light and fluffy. Fold in the mascarpone. Stir in remaining 2 tbsp Marsala until just combined.
Beat egg whites and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a clean, small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold egg white mixture into mascarpone mixture. Fold in the whipped cream.
Dip ladyfingers, one at a time, for 1-2 seconds only, into coffee mixture. Arrange in a single layer in a 9-inch square baking dish. Spread half the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Dust top with sifted cocoa powder just before serving.
