Real italian Tiramisu
Serves/Yields: 6 to 8 persons
Prep. Time: 15 to 20 minutes
Cook Time: none
Category: Italian
Difficulty: Easy
This is a real tiramisu recipe from my mother (She is italian).
Really easy and fast to prepare.
Makes me going nuts when I read recipes with whipped cream in it, so I am giving you a traditional recipe.
Sorry for my english, but I am french speaking...
Amaretto liquor
1 & ¾ cup mascarpone cheese
3 egg yolks
3 egg whites
½ cup sugar (or more if you like it very sweet)
1 pack of lady fingers
Very strong coffee
Cocoa powder
Prepare strong coffee, and add it the Amaretto liquor.
Taste the coffee with a spoon, it has to taste the Amaretto, or else it is useless.

Mascarpone cheese preparation


Beat the egg yolks together with sugar at least 2 or 3 minutes.
Softened the mascarpone with a fork and then add it to your eggs+ sugar preparation and fold in.
Beat the 3 egg whites until it gets very high and fluffy.
Add them delicately to the rest of your preparation.

Dip the lady fingers quickly in the coffee for about 1 or 2 seconds (not too quickly and not too long).
Lean them in the bottom of your pan and then cover with mascarpone preparation, and repeat until you reach the top.
Finally sprinkle your tiramisu with the cocoa powder and put it in the fridge for at least 3 to 4 hours.
The best is to prepare it the day before.
