Kahlua Coffee Tiramisu

• 6 eggs separated
• 16 ounces mascarpone
• 1/2 cup white sugar divided
• 1 1/2 cups coffee cooled
• 1/2 cup kahlua
• 36 ladyfingers I prefer the harder lady fingers
• 1 cup bittersweet chocolate finely grated
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

1. Make the coffee flavor of your choice in your KitchenAid(R) Personal Coffee Maker and set aside to cool.
2. In a KitchenAid mixer, whisk the egg whites until foamy. Add 1/4 cup of the sugar and whisk until soft peaks form. Set the mixture aside.
3. In another large bowl, or 2nd KitchenAid(R) stand mixer bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and remaining sugar until pale and thick. Add the mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth. Fold the whipped egg whites into the mascarpone mixture.
4. In a shallow bowl, combine the coffee and Kahlua. Dunk the ladyfingers into the liquid, one at a time for 1 second, and then layer them into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish. You might need to break some of the ladyfingers in half in order for them to fit nicely into the pan. Spread 1/3 of the mascarpone mixture on top of the ladyfingers. Sprinkle a few tablespoons of the finely grated chocolate over this layer and then repeat two more times so you have a total of 3 layers. On the last layer, refrain from adding the grated chocolate on top until after it has been refrigerated.
5. Cover the entire dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving
6. Dust the top layer with the cocoa powder and remaining grated chocolate before serving.
7. Options: Top the tiramisu with chocolate curls before serving if desired.
