Patrizia Chen's Tiramisu
- 6 large eggs
- 7 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons fine ground coffee (I use espresso or French roast)
- 7 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped
- 18 ounces mascarpone
- 1 cup coffee, strong Italian
- 2 tablespoons dark rum
- 14 ounces ladyfingers (or savoiardi cookies)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, dark
- Separate the eggs, putting the yolks into a large mixing bowl and the whites into the bowl of an electric mixer.
- Add 6 tablespoons of sugar to the yolks and whisk auntil pale yellow and creamy.
- Stir in the ground coffee, chocolate and mascarpone.
- Beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks; gently fold them into the mascarpone mixture.
- Line the sides of a nine inch springform pan with foil.
- In a shallow bowl, mix the cup of brewed coffee, rum and remaining tablespoon of sugar.
- One by one, dip enough cookies/ladyfingers into the mixture to cover the bottom of the pan (it's ok if they crumble).
- Take the remaining cookies/ladyfingers, dip them on just one side, and stand them straight up against the sides of the pan, the moist side facing inches.
- Pour the mascarpone mixture into the pan and sprinkle the top with the cocoa powder (easiest using a fine sieve).
- Cover and freeze for at least six hours.
- Let stand at room temperature one hour before serving.
- To unmold, spring open the pan, peel away the foil, and transfer the Tiramisu, still on the pan base, to a serving plate.
- Ecco fatto!
