    Tiramisu

    List of Ingredients




    3 egg yolks
    4 oz. sugar
    8 oz. Mascarpone cheese (a light, mild Italian cheese)*
    1 c. strong expresso coffee, cold
    1/2 oz. Frangelico (hazelnut liquor)
    1/2 oz. Kahlua (coffee liquor)
    6 half Lady Fingers (biscuit type cookies)

    *If unavailable, substitute 4 ounces cream cheese and 4 ounces whipped cream.

    Recipe



    Place half a lady finger in each serving dish. (An 8-ounce glass is best.) Prepare Expresso so it has time to cool. Place in refrigerator. Combine egg yolk and sugar in 2-quart mixing bowl and mix until creamy. Add chilled Expresso. Add Mascarpone cheese, which is best mixed at room temperature. Add both liquors and mix well. Divide mixture evenly into 6 prepared glasses with lady fingers. Place immediately into refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours before serving. If cream cheese and whipped cream replace the Mascarpone cheese, proceed the same with egg yolks and sugar. In separate bowl, whip the heavy cream. Have cream cheese at room temperature. Add Expresso to egg yolk and sugar. Add cream cheese and mix well. Fold in the whipped cream. Add the liquors, then divide mixture into glasses. Chill at least 2 hours. Before serving, sprinkle with a little freeze-dried coffee or cocoa powder.; Garnish with a sprig of mint or mocha bean and serve with an After Eight dinner mint.
