Ingredients :
8 x egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup Kailua
15 oz mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup rum
2 cup heavy cream, whipped stiff
1/4 cup Grand Marnier
soaking mixture
2 cup strong coffee
1 x in Italian markets
Method :
• Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until light in color and
the batter forms a `ribbon' when the beater is lifted and the batter doesn't `plop' off the beater but rather falls back on
itself in a ribbon. Add the mascarpone, beating well and then
the heavy cream. Put in the refrigerator. Soaking: Mix the
coffee, sugar and liqueurs together until sugar is dissolved.
Pour half of the mascarpone mixture into a large bowl. Dip 1
ladyfinger at a time into the coffee mixture until thoroughly
moistened but not dripping. If you allow the ladyfingers to
absorb too much of the coffee mixture, they will exude their
liquid into the cream layer and the cream will be watery. Cover
the entire surface of the cream layer with the dipped
ladyfingers. Pour the remaining mascarpone mixture over the
ladyfingers, smoothing with a spatula. Chop some bittersweet
chocolate into medium/small chunks and sprinkle over the top
of the dessert. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, overnight is
best. Serve cold.
• This is a truly decadent dessert.
