This is the tiramisu that we serve at Giraffe. We make it in the traditional manner inspired by a recent trip to Italy with my head chef Rob Hope-Ede. The mascarpone does not have to be at room temperature, but it will help it mix in easier if it is. Take it out of the refrigerator as you gather ingredients to make the recipe.
Ingredients
| 6 large | Egg yolks (Main) |
| ½ cup | Sugar |
| 1 cup | Mascarpone, 280g, at room temperature (Main) |
| 1 ¾ cups | Cream, use heavy whipping cream not light (Main) |
| 2 packets | Ladyfinger biscuits, also called savoiardi biscuits (Main) |
| 1 cup | Espresso coffee, cold, or strong coffee (Main) |
| ½ cup | Coffee liqueur, or your favourite spirit (Main) |
| 2 Tbsp | Cocoa, for dusting (Main) |
