Steps:
- Whisk the yolks with the sugar until light. Whisk in two teaspoons of rum. Beat in the mascarpone until smooth and then beat in 2 tablespoons espresso until well mixed.
- Add remaining rum to one cup of espresso. Dip each ladyfinger into espresso mixture; do not soak. Arrange 3 ladyfingers in a pyramid on each of 6 plates.
- Divide the mascarpone mixture into 6 equal portions and spoon over the ladyfingers. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate about 30 minutes or a few hours, if desired.
- Sprinkle with chocolate shavings and serve.
