Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 7 egg yolks; 1/2 cup sugar; 1/3 cup marsala, plus; 2 tablespoons marsala; 8 ounces mascarpone, softened; 1 cup heavy cream; 1 cup brewed espresso; 1 ounce dark chocolate; 1/4 cup rum; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 48 ladyfingers (usually 2 packs); 1/4 cup cocoa powder (for the top) or 1/4 cup chocolate curls (for the top)

Servings: persons

7 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup marsala, plus
2 tablespoons marsala
8 ounces mascarpone, softened
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup brewed espresso
1 ounce dark chocolate
1/4 cup rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
48 ladyfingers (usually 2 packs)
1/4 cup cocoa powder (for the top) or 1/4 cup chocolate curls (for the top)

1
Cream together egg yolks & sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Add 1/3 cup of the marsala and continue to whisk until the mixture is thick and doubled in volume (I use my hand mixer for this so I don't get tired of whisking, and it gets more air into the eggs). Remove from heat, and stir in the mascarpone until completely blended.
2
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture to lighten.
3
In a small saucepan, combine the espresso, chocolate, rum, vanilla, and remaining 2 Tbsp of marsala. Heat gently and stir to dissolve the chocolate. Then, chill the mixture to cool it down, about 15 minutes.
4
Quickly dip each lady finger into the coffe mixture and arrange ina single layer on the bottom of a 9x13 inch glass baking dish. Do not soak the cookies or they will become too moist. Spread half of the mascarpone cream evenly over the dipped lady fingers. Repeat with a second layer of dipped lady fingers and remaining macarpone cream.
5
Top with either cocoa powder or shaved chocolate. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving so everything will set up. You can even make it the day before and the lady fingers will get soft and cake-like.
