TIRAMISU
Tiramisu means "pick me up" in Italian and was first served in brothels. I dreamed about making tiramisu for years and years and finally did it after watching a bunch of Youtube clips. Finally, I bought myself a Waring hand mixer to beat all the ingredients. I used Bacardi rum, brown sugar, honey, cacao powder, vanilla extract, eggs, mascarpone cheese and expresso coffee. It is not so far fetched after all making this "pick me up" stuff.
INGREDIENTS
6 egg yolks
1/2 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons of rum
2 cups mascarpone cheese
24 ladyfingers
2 cups brewed coffee
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
DIRECTIONS
1. In a medium bowl, beat yolks with sugar, rum and vanilla until smooth and light yellow and very fluffy.
2. Fold mascarpone into yolk mixture. Set aside.
3. Dip ladyfingers briefly in coffee and arrange 12 of them in the bottom of an 10×10 inch dish.
4. Spread half the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Repeat with remaining cookies and mascarpone.
5. Cover and chill 1 hour. Sprinkle with cocoa just before serving.
