Homemade tiramisu

Instructions

1. 1

   1. Separate the eggs and divide them between the two bowls. Make the espresso and pour it into the small dish.2. Start by mixing the egg yolks and the sugar in a bowl. Once the yolks and sugar are combined, add the mascarpone and the Amaretto. Mix everything well. In the other bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff. When they have a nice airy texture, gently fold them into the yolk mixture. Don't stir too hard or you'll knock out the air, and that would be a shame.3. Dip the ladyfingers in the coffee, arrange them over the bottom of the baking dish and pour a layer of the mascarpone/egg mixture on top. Then dip more ladyfingers in the coffee, make another layer and pour another layer over it. Repeat this until the mixture is used up; depending on the size of your baking dish you'll have about 3 layers.4. Now for the hardest part: leave the dish alone for 2 hours 😉. Really chill it in the fridge for at least 2 hours so it can set properly. Before serving, dust some cocoa over the top using a sieve and then enjoy!
