Servings: 9 people
Calories: 275kcal
Equipment
- 1 handheld or stand mixer
- 1 spatula
- 1 8x8 baking dish
Ingredients
- 4 egg yolks
- 2 tbsp Kahlua Liqueur
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 16 oz mascarpone cheese from 2 containers
For assembly:
- 2 1/2 cups strongly brewed coffee
- 24 ladyfinger cookies from a 7 ounce package
For topping:
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
Instructions
- Start by separating the eggs and reserving the yolks. We will not use the whites for this recipe.
- In a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, add in the egg yolks, Kahlua liqueur, heavy whipping cream, sugar and mascarpone cheese.
- Using the whisk attachment or an electric hand mixer on medium speed, whip the mascarpone mixture to a stiff peak (you'll know when it's done because the mixture on the beater will stay upright when its flipped upside down). This should take about 2 minutes in a stand mixer. Then set aside.
- Next, brew your coffee and allow it to cool for a few minutes just so you don't burn yourself! Pour it into a small, shallow dish and start to QUICKLY dip each ladyfinger. Then transfer them to the 8x8 baking dish.
- Once you have an even layer of soaked ladyfingers on the bottom of the dish, using an offset spatula, spread half of the creamy mascarpone filling.
- Repeat this process one more time.
- Top with a dusting of cocoa powder. Then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
