Ingredients
6 Egg yolks
3 tablespoons Sugar
1 pound Mascarpone cheese
1 1/2 cups Strong espresso, cooled
2 teaspoons Dark rum
24 Packaged ladyfingers
1/2 cup Bittersweet chocolate shavings, for garnish

Total Preparation Time: 15 to 30 minutes
Course: Dessert
Actual Cooking Time: 2 hours
Number of Servings: 4
Origin: Italian

Preparation
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer with whisk attachment, beat egg yolks and sugar until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Add mascarpone cheese and beat until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of espresso and mix until thoroughly combined.

In a small shallow dish, add remaining espresso and rum. Dip each ladyfinger into espresso for only 5 seconds. Letting the ladyfingers soak too long will cause them to fall apart. Place the soaked ladyfinger on the bottom of a 13 by 9 inch baking dish, breaking them in half if necessary in order to fit the bottom.

Spread evenly 1/2 of the mascarpone mixture over the ladyfingers. Arrange another layer of soaked ladyfingers and top with remaining mascarpone mixture.
Cover tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 8 hours.
Before serving, sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
