Categories     Dessert

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

7 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp. sweet marsala
8 oz. mascarpone, softened and at room temperature
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup brewed espresso
1 oz. dark chocolate (about 70% cacao)
1/4 cup rum
1 tsp. vanilla extract
48 ladyfingers
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa

Steps:

  • Whisk together egg yolks and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Add 1/3 cup marsala and continue to whisk until mixture is thick and doubled in volume. (This is essentially a zabaglione.) Remove from heat. Stir in mascarpone until completely blended. In a chilled bowl, whip heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold whipped cream into zabaglione to lighten. In a small saucepan, combine espresso, chocolate, rum, vanilla, and remaining 2 tablespoons marsala. Heat gently and stir to dissolve chocolate. Then, chill mixture to cool it down, about 15 minutes. Quickly dip each ladyfinger in chilled mixture and arrange in a single layer on a 9x13 glass baking pan or a trifle dish. Do not soak cookies or they will become mushy. Spread 1/2 mascarpone cream evenly with a spatula on top of ladyfingers. Repeat these layers until all ladyfingers and mascarpone cream have been used, making sure to leave a mascarpone layer on top. Sprinkle top with cocoa. Refrigerate 2 hours before serving.
