Tiramisu
Tiramisu is a wonderfully rich Italian desert made with lady finger biscuits and espresso - it is a natural fit for experimenting with coffee syrups.
Ingredients
6 whole eggs + 4 egg yolks
200ml Amaretto Coffee Syrup
800g Mascarpone Cheese
30 lady finger biscuits
40 ml water
Pinch Of Salt
Method
Separate the egg whites from the yolks
Put the egg whites in one clean and dry bowl
Put the egg whites into another clean, dry bowl Vigorously stir the mascarpone until it thickens
Add the Amaretto coffee syrup to the yolks and whisk until fluffy
Add the egg yolk mixture to the mascarpone and fold them together gently
Add the pinch of salt to the egg whites and whisk until they form stiff peaks.
Add the whites to the yolks and fold together - you should make sure to stir gently otherwise you run the risk of releasing the air trapped inside the egg whites.
Take a rectangular, shallow dish and add the water with some more amaretto coffee syrup.
Put half lady finger biscuits into the dish so they soak up the liquid.
Spoon over half of the egg mixture over the biscuits Put the other half of the lady finger biscuits on top of the mixture to form a new layer.
Spoon the remaining egg mixture over the biscuits. Put a dusting of cocoa over the desert and put it in the fridge for a minimum of 5 hours. You can even leave it overnight to let the flavors enrich.
