A coffee flavoured Italian dessert. It is made of ladyfingers dipped in coffee, layered with a whipped mixture of eggs, sugar and mascarpone, flavoured with cocoa.

This recipe is for one serving.

== Ingredients ==

'''For the Mascarpone Mixture:'''

* 40g (1.4 oz) mascarpone cheese
* 1 egg, separated into yolk and white
* 1 1/2 tablespoons (22.5ml) strong brewed espresso coffee, cooled
* 1 1/2 tablespoons (22.5ml) heavy cream
* 1 1/2 tablespoons (22.5ml) Marsala wine (or coffee liqueur like Kahlúa)
* 1 tablespoon (15g) granulated sugar

'''For Assembling:'''

* 2 to 3 ladyfingers (savoiardi biscuits)
* 1/2 to 1 tablespoon (7.5 to 15ml) strong brewed espresso coffee, cooled
* Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
* Dark chocolate shavings or cocoa powder, for garnish (optional)

== Method ==

* Brew the espresso coffee and let it cool to room temperature.

* In a small mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, espresso coffee, heavy cream, Marsala wine, and half of the granulated sugar (1/2 tablespoon). Mix until well combined and smooth.

* In a separate bowl, beat the egg white with the remaining sugar until it forms stiff peaks.

* Gently fold the beaten egg white into the mascarpone mixture until well combined and airy.

* Quickly dip the ladyfingers into the cooled espresso coffee, ensuring they're moist but not soggy.

* In a serving glass or dish, place a layer of the soaked ladyfingers.

* Add half of the mascarpone mixture on top of the ladyfingers and spread it out evenly.

* Add another layer of soaked ladyfingers on top of the mascarpone mixture.

* Finish with the remaining mascarpone mixture, spreading it out smoothly.

* Cover the tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing it to set and develop the flavours.

* Just before serving, dust the top of the tiramisu with unsweetened cocoa powder and garnish with dark chocolate shavings or additional cocoa powder if desired.
