1
In a bowl, whisk the 2 egg whites with half the sugar and salt until set. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the other half of the sugar and the chilled espresso. Fold the two components together, and then the mascarpone cheese, previously brought to room temperature. Roughly pulse in blender (or hand smash) the cookies, adding the liqueur at times. The mix has to be wet, but still have a consistency/crunch. Layer the cookie mix at the bottom of the glass and fill up the martini glass with the cream halfway and then add a layer of cookie mix and then top with a layer of cream to the top of the glass.
