Tiramisu with Tea

My take on the classic Italian dessert is a Tiramisu with Tea. It sounds odd but believe me it tastes really good. Great if you don't like coffee.

📝 Ingredients

• 3 Earl Grey tea bags
• 250 g marscapone
• 100 g caster sugar
• 4 medium eggs
• 200 g sponge fingers

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Make a cup of tea with 3 earl grey tea bags. I know it sounds a lot but you want the Earl Grey to be strong enough in the final pudding. Leave to cool.
2. 2Serves the Tea-amisu in teacups with saucers for a very cute way to present it on the dinning table.
3. 3Separate the eggs.
4. 4Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks.
5. 5In a bowl mix together the marscapone, sugar and egg yolks.
6. 6Gently fold in the egg whites. It takes a while but be gentle.
7. 7Dunk the sponge fingers in the cold tea and break up into chunks to make a layer in the tea cup.
8. 8Drizzle an extra teaspoons of tea over the sponge fingers.
9. 9Smooth over a layer of cream.
10. 10Sprinkle the chocolate over the cream.
11. 11Repeat the sponge fingers, cream and chocolate to make layers.
12. 12Pop in the fridge and leave for at least 1 hour.
