Start with the chocolate mascarpone cream: melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Chocolate is best melted in a double boiler because direct heating would ruin it… as an alternative, you can microwave the chocolate on high for 2-3 minutes, stir and microwave at intervals until completely melted, but be careful not to burn it. Pour into a bowl and allow to cool; while it’s cooling, separate the egg whites from the yolks, we’ll use only the yolks. Add the sugar and beat until nice and fluffy. Take a bowl and add the mascarpone cheese: beat until softened, then add the chocolate, which should have cooled by now. Fold in the egg mixture: a little at first, beat, then add the rest and mix to combine. Place the chocolate mascarpone cream in the fridge.
Brew the coffee and let it cool, then pour into a bowl in which to dip the ladyfingers. You can leave it unsweetened or sweeten to taste; dissolve the sugar and take the chocolate cream out of the fridge. I’ll use a pastry bag for ease of handling. Now assemble the tiramisu: dip the ladyfingers, drain a bit and line the bottom of your dessert bowls; cut off the corner of the bag, cover with the chocolate mascarpone cream, dust with the cocoa powder, using a sieve, repeat another layer of soaked ladyfingers, then the chocolate cream and sprinkle the cocoa powder on top. The first tiramisu is ready: repeat to make 4 bowls. In the meantime, let’s see together the ingredients needed for this recipe.
