Number Of Ingredients 9

8 large eggs, separated
1 pound mascarpone
4 ounces small almond biscotti
3 cups brewed espresso, cooled
1/3 cup coffee liqueur, such as Kahlua
42 store-bought Ladyfinger biscuits
1 cup heavy cream
Best-quality milk chocolate, for garnish
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together yolks and mascarpone until smooth. Add 1 cup sugar; whisk until dissolved. Set aside.
  • Place biscotti in the bowl of a food processor; pulse for coarse crumbs. Fold biscotti into mascarpone mixture; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add egg whites; beat until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites into mascarpone mixture; set aside.
  • Combine espresso and liqueur in a medium bowl; pour half the mixture into a pie plate. Quickly dip half the Ladyfingers individually into the pie plate, and place in the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish; fit snugly to line. Evenly spread half the mascarpone mixture over Ladyfingers; repeat layers.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together heavy cream and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar until soft peaks form. Spread whipped cream evenly over tiramisu; garnish with grated chocolate. Chill at least 2 hours and preferably overnight before serving.
