Instructions

1

Separate eggs and whip whites

Separate the eggs. Whisk the whites with 80g sugar until stiff and glossy.

5 min
Make sure no yolk gets into the whites for maximum volume
2

Whip egg yolks

In a separate bowl, whisk the yolks with the remaining 80g sugar until pale, thick and fluffy.

5 min
The mixture should become pale yellow and triple in volume
3

Combine mascarpone mixture

Add the mascarpone, vanilla and a pinch of salt and whisk until smooth.

3 min
Mix on low speed to avoid overbeating mascarpone
4

Fold in egg whites

Fold the egg whites into the mascarpone mixture in two additions, gently folding each time so you don’t knock out all that lovely air.

4 min
Use a gentle folding motion from bottom to top to preserve air
5

Dip ladyfingers

Dip each ladyfinger very quickly into the cooled coffee, just a second.

5 min
Dip quickly to prevent ladyfingers from becoming soggy

Assemble first layer

Arrange half the ladyfingers in your dish, spread over half the mascarpone mixture.

3 min
Use a rectangular or square dish for even layers
7

Add second layer

Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone, then smooth the top.

3 min
Smooth the top evenly for a beautiful final presentation
