1 cup sugar
6 large eggs -- separated

2 cups brewed espresso -- *see note

2 pieces semisweet chocolate -- to shave
1 cup sugar
6 large eggs -- separated
1 pound mascarpone cheese
14 ounces dried ladyfingers -- (about 24)
2 cups brewed espresso -- *see note
2 tablespoons unsweetened ground cocoa -- to dust
2 pieces semisweet chocolate -- to shave
 

Preparation:

* lightly flavored with about 4 TB amaretto, marsala, or any favorite liqueur 1. In a bowl, whisk together the sugar and egg yolks. Gradually add the mascarpone and continue stirring until the mixture becomes creamy. In another bowl, whip the egg whites to a meringue consistency (stiff peaks). Carefully fold the meringue into the mascarpone mixture. 2. Quickly and lightly dip enough ladyfingers or biscuits into the brewed espresso to line the bottom of an 8-by-8-inch pan or glass serving dish. Cover the ladyfingers or biscuits with one half of the mascarpone mixture, followed by a thorough dusting of cocoa and shaving of chocolate. Repeat the layering process. (If you prefer a less moist dessert, you can divide the layers into thirds, or dip your ladyfingers even faster....) 3. Once assembled, shake the pan lightly to settle the ingredients. Chill at least two hours (overnight is preferable) before serving. Cut into portions and serve.
