Tiramisu
Ingredients (serves 6)
500g mascarpone cheese
2 tbs caster sugar
400mls freshly brewed strong coffee, cooled
2 tbs Tia Maria or Kahlua (optional)
1x 250g pkt savoiardi biscuits
80g good-quality dark chocolate, grated
How to Prepare
Beat the mascarpone and caster sugar in a medium mixing bowl with electric beaters until soft peaks form. Set aside.
Combine the coffee and Tia Maria or Kahlua (if using) in a large bowl. Dip 1/2 the savoiardi biscuits quickly into the coffee mixture and then arrange over the base of a 1.25-1itre (5-cup) serving dish or six 250mls (1-cup) individual serving glasses. Spread half the mascarpone mixture evenly over the biscuits. Dip the remaining biscuits into the coffee mixture and then arrange in a single layer over the mascarpone layer. Finish with a layer of the remaining mascarpone mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
Sprinkle with the grated chocolate just before serving.
Note: +6 hours chilling time.

2 cups strong black coffee
1/2 cup marsala (or replace with orange juice)
3 eggs, separated

1 large pack of sponge fingers (saviardi)

Beat egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl with electric beater until pale and thick. Add the mascarpone and whipped cream, mixing gently until just combined.
Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with electric beater until soft peaks form. Using a large metal spoon, gently fold eggwhites into the mascarpone mixture.
Dip enough biscuits into the coffee mixture to cover the base of a 19cm square ceramic dish. Cover with one-third of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat layers 2 times, ending with the cream. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for atleast 4-6 hours. Dust generously with cocoa or grated chocolate and serve.
