The Italian dessert everyone loves. The simplest version is often the best: good coffee, mascarpone and the patience to let it rest overnight.
Ingredients
Makes 4 people
Method
- Make the coffee and let it cool in a shallow dish. Separate the whites from the yolks.
- Whisk the yolks with the brown sugar and vanilla sugar until the mixture turns pale.
- Add the mascarpone and whisk just enough to get a smooth cream.
- Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks, then gently fold them into the cream with a spatula, lifting the mixture from the bottom.
- Dip the ladyfingers quickly in the coffee, just in and out, and use them to line the bottom of a dish.
- Cover with a layer of cream, then a second layer of soaked ladyfingers, and finish with the cream.
- Leave to set in the fridge for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight. Dust with cocoa through a sieve just before serving.
